Dinner – HG Potluck (we brought Sauteed Chickpea and Zucchini)
[we also ate liz’s homemade pizza, andrea’s meatloaf, bonchak broccoli, jane’s tater tots, and kelly’s cookies. – we love HG potluck!]

Tuesday
Lunch – Grilled Cheese with Avocado and Tomato, chips
Dinner – Fried Orzo with vegetables and quorn

Wednesday
Lunch – PBJ and Mac n Cheese
Dinner – Stuffed Chicken (wild rice and cranberries), red potatoes and salad (lettuce, carrots, cucumber, apple, & crasins)
