After a long and relaxing holiday, I’m back home and feeling completely unmotivated to plan meals.  Sadly, it must be done.  Thankfully it’s a relatively short week.  Everything in meals 4-6 was selected for ease of preparation. 

Meal 7, New Year’s Day, is Junk Food Day, a tradition we seem to have skipped last year.  When I was a kid, Junk Food Day was the one day of the year my brother and I could pick whatever horribly unhealthy foods we wanted to eat.  This has evolved into me making a bunch of munchy foods that we can graze upon all day.  I haven’t figured out the entire menu to ring in the new year, but I’m sure the rest will be tasty.  I might pick up some lunchmeat and bread so we can supplement the appetizers with sandwiches. 

Christmas was lovely as far as food went (and as far as everything else went as well)!  We had our traditional Christmas dinner of grilled filet mignon, French onion casserole, roasted mushrooms, and other delicious things.  Once my brother arrived we enjoyed a black bean lasagna that was fantastic.  Lots of good food and good times with family!  (I must do some sort of cow roast in the near future so I have an excuse to cook and post some of these (recipes.)

And this concludes my last meal plan of 2010.
