Menu Plan Monday - the holiday & vacation edition

We're out of town this week, & spending the holidays with the family. Should be fun! :-) We usually vacation at our beach house, so recipes have to be simple. We keep a moderately stocked kitchen & pantry, but try to keep the recipes to things we have on hand.

Lunches - some variety of the following:

• Tomato soup
• Chicken curry salad sandwiches (I make a huge batch, increase the curry, add currants & lemon juice)
• May make a couscous salad to go with the sandwiches
• Fruit
• Baked chips & salsa

Dinner (no days assigned for the first 1/2 of the week, as we're trying to keep things flexible this week):

• Pasta with vodka cream sauce + goat cheese crostini
• Parmesan chicken and rice
• Baked shells with pesto & mozzarella
• Tortellini (from the freezer), topped with pesto, fresh tomatoes & parmesan cheese
• Christmas Eve - partying with the family :-)
• Christmas Day - family events!
• Sunday - leftovers. Likely leftover Baked shells with pesto & mozzarella as it makes a huge dish.

Have a fabulous holiday!!
