Menu Plan: November 8 - November 14

Veteran's Day is on the feast of St. Martin this year, which is somewhat appropriate, as St. Martin was a Roman solider. We will be breaking our Wednesday fast to honor both the saint and our own veteran. I'm making apple cinnamon waffles for Rich and we'll be making almond filled croissants for St. Martin.

Our Saturday dinner is taken care of as our neighborhood is having a harvest dinner potluck. There are two big neighborhood potlucks a year and we managed to move in time to attend both.

I forgot to mention that I will be hosting another Bean Week Challenge next week. My menu plan is usually up no later than 8:00 p.m. on Sundays, but we have a family thing going on that may delay it. So, I'll say no later than 8:00 p.m.on Monday.
What is on your menu this week? If you want a recipe, ask and I will provide it as soon as I can. Starred recipes will follow separately.

Here is the list of foods from the freezer, fridge and pantry that I'm using this week. Anything from the freezer, pantry or fridge that was not bought specifically for this meal or this past week will be included in my lists.

Hi, Ranee!

I'd love some of the recipes for Wednesday, looks great!
 
Which ones? I'm already posting the apple-cinnamon waffle recipe. I will post a list of recipes from the menu plan on Saturday. Just tell me which ones you want and I'll try to add them to that list.
 
I made muffins this weekend, and Robb is actually eating some of the apple cinnamon ones (this is news-worthy, promise) but my big excitement this week is going to be improvising a kind of daal tonight. Red lentils, chicken, and whatever else I can find to throw in the pot. I'm excited.
