meal plan monday

My new year's resolution is to cook more from my cookbooks...I've got a TON and they need to be used! I'm also going back to the no-knead method for bread. This week, I made a batch of light whole wheat, and I'll turn it into a few different thing - olive tapenade, caramelized onion, and just free form artisan loaves. Joel requested ham this week, so we're having one mid week and then I'll use up the leftovers over the next month or so.
