Menu Plan Monday: February 8th

I seem to be struggling with my menu plan for this week.  Mainly, because we have so much food leftover from our Super Bowl Get Together (6 people including the two of us isn't a party is it?). 

True to form,  I cooked too much food!  After putting it all away (and sending some home with our guests), our refrigerator is overflowing with leftover party food! 

This morning, I pulled everything back out and separated into smaller portions.  I kept some in the fridge for this week and froze the rest for later.
I love having pre-cooked food in the freezer for last minute lunch guests!  (hint hint, Mom!) 

So, my menu for this week is pretty much a leftover buffet, but I will try to make new meals using the leftover components.  

  • Monday:       kielbasa sandwiches / pierogi
  • Tuesday:       buffalo wings / Roasted Garlic and Potato Soup
  • Wednesday:  meatball sandwiches / macaroni & shrimp salad
  • Thursday:     Cowboy Stew (from the freezer)
  • Friday:          spaghetti & meatballs / garlic bread
  • Saturday:      Kielbasa Soup (using vegetables from veggie tray)
  • Sunday:         Asian-Style Pepper Steak (unless we get Chinese take-out for a Valentine's Day treat!)
All of the highlighted recipes can be found on my recipe blog, My Vintage Kitchen.  The original recipe (and my inspiration) for Asian-Style Pepper Steak can be found here on my friend Lisa's blog, Extraordinary Life.
