Menus on Mondays: Menu Plan for 12/3/12

I’m turning into a chubby bunny.  ‘Tis the season I suppose!  I blame holiday parties and booze.  Ya know?  This week I’m going to try and set myself back onto the path of healthful eating.  Wanna join me?  This week’s menu plan is stocked with seasonal, fresh foods prepared in a healthy way.

If you ever have a question about a recipe or a suggestion about what recipes you’d like to see on future menus, drop me  a line: katie.harding@gmail.com

Happy cooking!
