Eames' Meals October 6-11

I must agree with Sally, Fall is the best time of the year -- especially in TN! Miss it desperately! Anyway, here is our menu for the week.

M - Roasted Vegetables (red potatoes, zucchini, sweet potato & onion) & Monterey Chicken
T - Pasta Bake --Cooked pasta, hamburger & or sausage, spaghetti sauce and chunked cream cheese, topped with mozzarella
W - "Gunge) - Rice, hamburger, & peas topped with soy sauce.
Th - Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes, Some meat (haven't decided yet), and a veggie. Really it is all about the sweet potatoes. A recipe I found in the Taste of Home magazine that sounds divine! The recipe is below.
F- Leftovers
Sat - Tacos

TWICE-BAKED SWEET POTATOES
6 medium sweet potatoes
1/4 C butter, cubed
2 C shredded cheddar cheese
6 bacon strips, cooked & crumbled
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

Scrub and pierce sweet potatoes. Bake at 375-degrees for 1-1/4 hours or until
tender.
When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and
discard. Scoop out the pulp, leaving thin shells. In a large bowl, mash the
pulp with butter. Stir in the cheese, bacon, salt & pepper. Spoon into potato
shells.
Place on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until heated through.
Makes 6 servings.
