Menu Plan Monday: Eat from the Pantry June 2010, Part One

Let the official June eating from the pantry menu plans commence. I'll bold everything involving a nonperishable pantry staple for reference.

Monday:
Breakfast - Yoghurt, sliced fruit, milk
Lunch - Pumpkin soup (leftover from a batch that I made on Saturday, loosely based on this recipe), shredded cabbage salad
Dinner - Sausage quiche with this highly-rated flaky crust, since my mother-in-law spontaneously gave us some Jimmy Dean pork sausage, and I have a whole lot of veggie shortening to use

Tuesday:
Breakfast - Peanut butter baked oatmeal (thanks, Sharon!), milk
Lunch - Leftover sausage quiche (with a from-the-pantry crust)
Dinner - Stir-fry chicken, asparagus, coconut rice (thanks, C Shipe!)

Wednesday:
Breakfast - California cherries @ $2.22/lb. from Giant, bananas, milk
Lunch - Trader Joe's Jaipur veggies, leftover coconut rice
Dinner - Baked tilapia, brown rice, salad

Thursday:
Breakfast - Brown rice breakfast porridge, milk
Lunch - Sliced apples with peanut butter, iceberg lettuce with bacon-avocado ranch dressing (based loosely on this) - Avocados are $1/ea., and iceberg lettuce is $0.88/head at Giant this week!
Dinner - Annie's Mac'n'Cheese
*Will make/bake and freeze some whole wheat pumpkin chocolate chip muffins Thursday night, and save a few for Friday morning and my husband's Friday lunch

Friday:
Breakfast - Whole wheat pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, courtesy of Unfinished Mom (Thanks, Sharon, for the suggestion!), milk
Lunch - Miso soup with tofu and brown rice
Dinner - Frozen lasagna, salad
