What's on the Menu?

Today is Friday but I already have my menu planned for next week but I have a problem. I am doing something a little different--I am cooking on both Saturday and Sunday night this week and while I planned those menu's I figured I would plan the rest of the week. The problem--I don't know what to make on Thursday night. If I ask AJ he will ask for Shepard's Pie. If I ask Erin she will ask for French Dip Sandwiches. If I ask Dave he will say its up to me. Got any suggestions? Here is what I have planned for the other nights, just so you know....
Saturday (no kids, its just Dave and I)
Lamb chops
Polenta with arugula
Cipolline onions with a balsamic vinegar reduction
Sunday (the folks are coming for dinner)
Baby Back Ribs
Chipolte Coleslaw
Black Beans
Jalapeno Corn Bites
Monday
Beef with Onion
Birds Nest (Trader Joes)
White Rice
Tuesday
NONE--boys will be out and Erin and I will find something
Wednesday
Veggie Soup
Grilled Tuna Sandwiches
Thursday
AWAITING YOUR SUGGESTIONS

Sometimes I need a little inspiration or outside help. That is where you come in. Please help as I am stuck. The only thing it can't be is fish. Erin won't eat it so I save fish entrees for when she is not going to be home. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Sounds like you are missing poultry...Roasted chicken, turkey meatloat, turkey tacos, stir-friend chicken and broccoli...turkey sausage and lentil stew?

I think you are on to something about turkey. I may go with turkey breast with mashed potatoes and roasted garlic gravy. String beans are always a nice go with OR if I have a bit of extra time I can make carrot souffle. The kids love a mini thanksgiving any time of the year.
