@delight: What kind of sauce is your creamy garlic sauce? Recipe?

Mon - Pasta bake
Tues - Tacos
Wed - Rice bowls with veggies
Thurs - Pesto pasta
Fri - Big salad

I don't meal plan dinners for the weekend since we usually try to just do "fridge cleanout" meals then. We'll probably grab Chipotle one night too.

@travellingbee: It's just a mish mash of other recipes that I have adapted. I like it because the spaghetini cooks in the sauce. No straining involved and it just uses one pot!

Creamy Garlic Sauce
2 tbs olive oil
2 tbs butter
4 cloves garlic or 2 ts of minced garlic
3 cups chicken stock
3/4 cup heavy cream (I use half and half though)
1 cup freshly grated parmasean cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
spaghetini or other pasta. I just toss in enough for 3 big serving.

Directions:
In large pot, heat olive oil on med-high. Toss in garlic and cook for 2 mins. Toss in butter and continue stirring until melted.

Add the chicken stock and salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Add your pasta and cook as directed. I just watch and if it is sucking up all the stock I add a little more.

When pasta is cooked, add the cream and parmasean cheese and stir until coated. This is when I also add shrimp. I just used cooked shrimp I buy in a bag at the store that has been thawed in colander. I find if I stir the shrimp in the pasta for two minutes it heats up nicely and has all the garlicky flavor.

I think this recipe would also be good with chicken, cherry tomatoes and spinach tossed in.

Monday: garlic burgers, macaroni shrimp salad
Tues: Tacos and Mexican street corn
Wed: out
Thurs: spicy arugula, tuna, avocado and goat cheese salad
Friday: not sure yet

Lunches: quiche and arugula salad

The only thing I have planned is chicken thighs in poblano cream simmer sauce (store bought).

We have a ton of food to use up, so I do need to get cracking.

@delight: thanks! Yum!
