I recently received a George Foreman Evolve Grill to review on Contest Corner, so last week’s menu revolved around my new kitchen toy!
This grill comes with a deep dish plate, so you can actually use it to make lasagna, believe it or not! For this dish, I used lasagna noodles from the stockpile, a can of tomato sauce that I got on clearance, frozen spinach, cheese, and two baby tomatoes from the garden.
I served this with a loaf of homemade french bread, a bottle of wine that Jai got as a birthday gift, and a chocolate cake, made from a Duncan Hines mix that I will also be reviewing on Contest Corner! Mmmm.
The next day, I used the remainder of the french bread to make ham and cheese paninis for lunch. I used up the last packet of .04 cent ham that I got back in April – this ham has been such a fantastic thing to have on hand. I stored it in the freezer and would thaw out a package whenever I needed one. We had a lot of company over for meals last month, so this was perfect for sandwich stations – I would set out the ham, a loaf of bread, and various toppings so that everyone could make their own sandwich. Frugal and delicious!
I also grilled some veggies along with meat strips from my freezer stockpile for dinner on Thursday and Friday night. (I had thawed out two packages of meat, so I needed to make sure they were both used up!) I served these with tortillas and cheese so that we could make fajitas.
So there’s my grill-centered menu for the week! If you have an Evolve grill and would like more details on the recipes, you can click here to read my review on Contest Corner.
