A Week of Solar Cooking

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed

We are supposed to have sun every day this week, so I’m breaking my own rule and linkin’ with Menu Plan Monday to show off all my solar oven plans for the week.

Monday – Chili and Rice

Tuesday –  Mac & Cheese with Tuna Salad

Wednesday – Chicken Tacos

Thursday – Chilaquiles and Rice

Friday – Veggie Lasagne

These are all  recipes from the book Cooking With Sunshine and, unless we have a weather change, I’ll be cooking all of them in the solar ovens every day.  I haven’t figured a way to make cornbread in the solar ovens, but, I’ll be fiddlin’ around with that this week.

And if the forecast changes and we do have too many clouds I can just cook these same recipes in my crockpot.

The Cowboys are gonna set up the big tent and start sleepin’ in the backyard tomorrow or Tuesday night.  We don’t get a lot of rain here so they’ll be happy campers for a good while.

I should be able to hang all of the laundry (clothes, towels & sheets) and totally neglect my electric dryer all week.

Here’s your shorcut back to Menu Plan Monday.

    Ooh, I’d love to have a solar oven! My dream would be to completely live off grid, but I fear it’s only a dream. Still….

    Great menu plan!
