On The Menu Week Of August 29th

Need ideas for dinner this week? I have 7 scrumptious dinner menus and 35 delicious recipes just for you!  Main dishes, side dishes, salads, soups, breads, desserts, and great tips and ideas for making every meal its best! Here's what's On The Menu week of August 29th.

For me, fall begins on September 1st no matter what the outside temperature and weather! Fall is my very favorite season and I want to celebrate it as long as I can. Because we love to eat seasonally here at StoneGable that means my recipes start to change too! So, here’s what’s On The Menu Week Of August 29th.

Dinner choices become a little hardier and warmer when fall rolls around! We still have a garden full of tomatoes so we are having lots of tomatoes with most of our meals to eat up the remains of summer!

One of my must-make recipes in early fall is this easy and delicious Raw Apple Cake. If you make one thing this week, I hope it will be Raw Apple Cake!

Just made this apple cake!! I followed the recipe exactly except I added 1 tsp of cinnamon to the dry ingredients. (I just couldn’t make apple cake without the cinnamon!) I used 4 small loaf pans to bake it in and it took 50 minutes to bake them.

The taste is a light, mellow, flavorful cake that is not overly sweet and not too heavy. It’s just right!! You’ll be happy you made this apple cake!!

Here’s what’s On The Menu

MONDAY

Some recipes bring back wonderful memories. And my Nani’s Sauteed Chicken is not only scrumptious but is also filled with delicious memories of my grandmother’s kitchen.

Posting this recipe is like giving all who read it a gift! You will love and maybe it will spark memories for your family someday too!

Oh my goodness, I made this tonight for Sunday supper and it was absolutely delicious and SOOOO simple to make! Thank you for sharing this YUMMY recipe and lovely story. Family recipes really are the best!

Seriously beautiful recipe. This is an encore recipe. We had this dish recently and I just loved it! So it’s On The Menu again.

The flavors in this light and creamy dish are divine!

WEDNESDAY- COMPANY’S COMING!

LOVE a recipe that has a video.

Gotta see this porky-good recipe from The Kitchn. I love (did I say ❤️ AGAIN?) easy recipes so I don’t have to fuss when my guest are here.

THURSDAY

I’m addicted to sheet pan meals! How easy and less clean up. Scrumptious is the word to describe the look of this one-pan chicken dish from Chelsea’s Messy Apron!

FRIDAY- SOUP DAY

Locally grown cabbage is turning up at our Farmstands! They are huge and so delicious. I can’t help picking a fresh cabbage up to make one of my very favorite soups.

My Nani (grandmother) had a huge influence on the way I cook. She was a simple cook who make incredibly delicious food. She could coax flavor out of anything!

I’m making her Pork And Cabbage Soup! It is so so good! But don’t just take my word…

I love Nani’s recipes. I haven’t made her rice yet, but I have made her chicken dish several times, and we love it. Thank you, Yvonne, for sharing your precious heritage recipes with us.

SATURDAY

We should eat pizza more often. It has such wonderful flavors, right? And deep dish pizza is my favorite! Here’s a great recipe from Tina’s Chic Corner. I’ll be buying the dough from a local pizza shop to cut down on meal prep.

SUNDAY

Cafe Delites is one of my favorite foodie haunts. Karina’s recipes are absolutely delicious! If you haven’t perused her site you should. YUM! I think oranges and salmon are a perfect pairing
