What’s For Dinner? 30-Minute Menus for 2010 – 8th Edition   by Elizabeth Randall

This is the 8th edition of the weekly 30-minute menus for 2010. These are published on a weekly basis; I like to develop the weekly menus on Thursday or Friday, grocery shop on Saturday, and start the week’s menus on Sunday.

Have you been enjoying the Olympics on television? I sure have and I have been inspired to prepare healthier meals for my family so everyone can perform as well as the athletes! These menus are healthy and are also easy on the budget.

The BBQ Chicken Quarters for Thursday can be easily broiled if your weather just does not permit grilling this time of year. While it does have a pre-step to marinate the chicken quarters earlier in the day, the extra step is well worth the effort!

Friday’s Double Bean Tortilla Stacks are great fun for the whole family. Everyone can stack and dress their dinner to their liking – making it easy on Mom, too!

You may think that the Beef Bourguignon on Saturday is company-fare (and it can be) but it is prepared with a frozen vegetable blend making this an elegant and easy supper to serve anytime.

You will find that I use several cooking methods, mix and match, to get dinner on the table quickly! (The ingredients in parenthesis show some of my quick-prep steps.) You can always substitute your favorite made-from-scratch Recipes when you have more time.

I hope you have a great week!
