Menu Plan Monday, 28 February

Did a little early spring cleaning over the weekend and turned up a number of odd food items:
  • 2 tins mackerel fillets in oil
  • 1 partial container french-fried onions
  • 1 Stonewall Kitchen Roasted Garlic Jam
  • 1 package frozen cocktail kielbasa
  • 4 packets beef-flavored ramen
Naturally, I thought I'd try to use these items in this week's menu plan!

Monday

Wednesday
  • "Lit'l Smokies Macaroni and Cheese" with green beans. Ingredients: mac and cheese mix, milk, butter, thawed cocktail kielbasa, shredded Cabot seriously sharp, condensed cheese soup, parsley, black pepper.
Thursday
  • Kraft's "Crunchy Asian Broccoli Coleslaw" (halved & tweaked). Ingredients: ramen, broccoli slaw, Italian dressing, scallions, sunflower kernels, crushed cashews, chopped leftover pork loin.
Friday

  1. That Stonewall Kitchen Roasted Garlic and Onion Jam makes an amazing meatloaf. I always have some in the house, as I prefer it to ketchup for my hamburgers. Sounds like a very creative menu for using up those odds and ends!

While I welcome comments (they make me *squee* like a fangirl), please don't leave comments just for the sake of promoting your own blog, product, or contest.

When you leave blatantly promotional comments, you crush my hope of building a personal connection with you and that makes me so sad, I have to spend the rest of the day looking at lolcats and eating cheese.
