Faye's Weekly Meal Plan

Monday, 10/1, is World Vegetarian Day so in honor of my oldest daughter, who is a vegetarian, we are having meatless Monday. On the vegetarian (but not vegan) menu is:

Scrambled eggs, MorningStar veggie sausage patties and cheese on toasted and buttered whole wheat English muffins

Broccoli, mushroom and cheddar soup

Apple slices with a little drizzle of caramel for dessert

Turkey tenderloin the slow cooker, roasted carrots and red potatoes, salad

Chipotle salmon burgers on rye bread, corn, green beans

BBQ chicken in the slow cooker, slaw, rolls, roasted sweet potatoes, salad

Creamy garlic shrimp cooked with spinach, feta cheese, kalamata olives and tomatoes served on rice and a side of Greek salad (I had a similar meal at a Greek restaurant on Saturday and I am going to try to duplicate it....sort of)
