Saturday, April 27- We went out to dinner since everyone was scattered about!
Sunday, April 28- My hubby gave me the night off my making dinner tonight :)
Monday, April 29- I picked up marinated pork lion at the supermarket last week. I will probably oven roast it since it is a rainy day today. Should the weather break, I may grill it instead. I will use some of the orange sweet potatoes from last week's box to make my sweet potato casserole and honey glazed carrots.

Tuesday, April 30- With Girl Scouts this evening I opted for a rather simple meal, Southwest Chicken Salad. I have made this other times in past seasons with my produce box vegetables.
Southwest Chicken Salad
1 small can corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar and Monterey cheese blend
3 tomatoes, chopped
Chopped romaine lettuce
Catalina salad dressing
Southwest Style Chicken
Corn chips
In a large bowl, combine the corn, black beans, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes. Add dressing and mix well. Cut up chicken and placed over salad. Add corn chips before serving.
I will use both romaine and green leaf lettuces from my box tonight.
Wednesday, May 1- I picked up rotisserie marinated chicken breasts which I will grill tonight. Depending on how much lettuce we have remaining, I'll throw together a side salad along with homemade macaroni salad.
Thursday, May 2- It's just the girls for dinner tonight. I'm thinking tortellini or spaghetti and meatballs for dinner.
