Hope everyone had a happy Easter! We ate entirely too much, but everything was sooooo good!! I nixed the mashed potatoes in favor of throwing together a green rice of sorts, with chopped broccoli and Velveeta. I loved it!!! I also made my dinner rolls in muffin pans for something different and they were a hit! It's funny what amuses children sometimes. I've planed my menu this week around using all these Easter leftovers, so there may appear to be a little bit of repetition. I'm thinking I should have posted this week's menu on my other blog, Not Just Leftovers, as I'm getting a little creative in using them! :-)
Monday - Cheddar-Ham Soup, leftover rolls, the rest of that yummy pumpkin pie.
Tuesday - Ham and cheese quiche with a (green) rice crust (in lieu of the demonstrated potato crust), french toast (gotta use up some sourdough bread). For dessert, I'm actually contemplating taking the leftover oh-so-sweet sweet potato casserole and heating it, then serving it topped with ice cream. Is that TOO weird??? ;-)
Wednesday - Pizza Rice Casserole (using up the last of the green rice from Easter - think the kids will notice???), fresh green beans, dinner rolls (got some Sister Schubert's for a steal with double coupons - need to try them).
Thursday - Skillet Bowtie Lasagna, the last of the Easter fresh green beans, soft buttery breadsticks.
Friday - I'm not cooking! We're actually going to the Spring Carnival at the kids' former school where we used to live. They are looking forward to seeing their old friends, and I am looking forward to entering for raffle prizes. I usually win at least a couple of fun things! Not sure what dinner will be, but you can bet it will be cheap!! :)
Saturday - Bierocks and homemade pizza pockets, crunch top potatoes, glazed carrots.
Sunday - Homemade mac and cheese, applesauce, leftover glazed carrots, homemade biscuits (with the strawberry jam I made today!).

thanks for great recipes
It's amazing what meals one can make with leftover ham.
Our favorite is Ham and Potato Cassorole.
You have some terrific meals planned for this week.
Happy MPM!
I was reading your reply to Grace for Gayle's post about renewing her vows.
That was so sweet of you to throw your friend an Anniversary Shower.
My husband and I renewed our wedding vows last October. Our friends and family did give us gifts. And they were beautiful.
