This Week’s Eats {may the 4th be with you}

I’m usually much more prepared for Cinco de Mayo than I am this year. Take last year, for example: I shared all of my favorite Mexican recipes with you. (Seriously, take a look if you need to add something to your menu for tomorrow!) This year, my husband’s taking over. Actually, he’s taking over the entire week and I honestly don’t know too much about what he’s got up his sleeve. He made a secret menu, complete with a secret grocery shopping list, and even dubbed this week “Mother’s Day Week.” This guy’s a keeper!

Here’s what’s on our menu this week:
(and yes, my husband did the whole board all by himself. Take a look at: his flowers in a vase, no less, his margarita glass, the little fish, picnic blanket, steak, and little hen; I had no idea he could draw! Color me impressed!)

  • Teriyaki Chicken Sunday (with cauliflower rice and grilled pineapple)
  • Mexican Monday (I think we’re having green chile chicken enchiladas? Totally not paleo and I’m beyond exited for it!)
  • Shrimp Tuesday (I couldn’t tell you anything about this other than the fact that shrimp is on the menu)
  • Picnic Wednesday (The husband’s working late that night, so I’m assuming this will be lunch for us…no idea what it entails)
  • Steak Thursday 
  • Pizza Friday (Homemade? Take out? Going out? I guess I’ll wait and see!)
  • Roast Hen Saturday (pretty positive it’s this recipe)
  • Sunday Surprise (aka Mother’s Day!)

I love how enthusiastic my husband is about celebrating things! I’m excited to see what he has in store for us. Which reminds me—when’s Father’s Day? Looks like I need to start planning something now!

  1. I'm so jealous that your husband is taking over and even making this "mother's day week". How sweet! Actually, now that I think about it, this week is my husband's turn to cook anyways. So maybe I have Mother's Day week every 2 weeks then :).
