Menu for the Week

We had a lovely Easter brunch with mom. It was nice not having to be anywhere or do anything other than being together. Michael and I sat together and chatted after we got home. It was great not to be in any hurry. A nice day.

April begins with a good workout at the other rehab, a few errands with mom then food shopping. The menu for the week is below:

Mongolian Beef - http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=1736075

Eggplant and Chicken Parmesian - I cut the calories with much smaller chicken breasts and low-fat cheese. Also, I don't use the amount of oil they recommend.  http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/eggplant_chicken_parmesan.html

Chinese 5-Spice Shrimp - http://www.lowfatlifestyle.com/entrees/entreerecipes/chinesefivespiceshrimp.htm#.UVmUgXDFXC4

Smoked Salmon Spread - for breakfast or lunch -  I cut calories by using fat free sour cream and low fat cream cheese.
