This Week's Menu 7/9 - 7/15

Pesto Chicken Penne from Cooking Channel

Weekly menus and new recipe finds have been sparse the last few months because...well, I'm pregnant and food was merely eaten for survival, not enjoyment around here. I'm coming out of the first trimester funk and ready to share some my menus again. We've been out of town for a week and eating lots of treats and soda and chips -- all good things, all good things -- it's just time to detox a bit and try to add as many veggies as possible to our meals.
