Monday: Grilled chicken with my own marinade*, steamed veggies from B's garden and a test run of ooey-gooey peanut butter chocolate brownies**.
Tuesday: Sauteed mahi mahi, steamed veggies and baked sweet potatoes
Wednesday: Chicken tacos with Monday's leftovers, Spanish rice and salad
Thursday: Roast, green beans and mashed potatoes (a.k.a. A Man's Meal)
Friday: Homemade pizzas with garden veggies (Yes, B has that many! Who knew I married a farmer?)
Saturday: Mac's Dedication!! I don't know what we'll be eating for dinner, but those who join us will enjoy lemon bars, the aforementioned brownies, pound cake, pimiento cheese sandwiches, fruit and a variety of other goodies that are TBD.
*Our dinner guests the other weekend raved about it; we'll see if I can repeat the miracle tonight when it's just us...
** Don't judge - they're for Macky's dedication on Saturday. I don't have a tremendously successful track record with new recipes, so I'm giving them a whirl now to be sure they work out. (Ask me about the Derby Day Bourbon Ball disaster of 2010.) Plus, they're from Cooking Light!

Oh, you should have told me that you were doing a test run on the ooey-gooey brownies...sounds like something my palate would be perfect for! =) I am coming up with several finger desserts myself. I'll keep you posted. They will be most delicious, for sure!
Yum-O! Your meals for the week sound delicious. I need to get back to planning out our weekly meals instead of waiting until the last minute, running to Food Lion, and just throwing something together. I can't wait to hear how the ooey-gooey pb brownies turn out. I am sure they will be delicious. :) Lana
Man, I am so impressed/jealous of all of these amazing fresh veggies (and flowers!)...my husband may be able to to save a life at the hospital, but when it comes to the yard, he can barely keep the grass alive, haha! :)
