Grocery List and Menu for this Week

This week our menu is going to have a couple of soups and salads on it. The autumn weather is a perfect time for great stews and soups, and my wife has requested that I make, what she considers to be, the best chicken salad there is. I am also making my favorite sandwich and salad combination. It is a must try. So here is the menu:

Bleu Cheese Chicken Salad
Red Beans & Rice
Butternut Squash Soup
Gruyere Grilled Cheese Sandwiches on a bed of Mesculun Greens with Humboldt Fog
Southwest Chicken Soup



Red beans (or kidney beans if you cannot find red beans)
2 lbs. of chicken breasts
4 oz. of bleu cheese
Mayonnaise (do not get light, get real mayonnaise)
walnuts (2 oz.)
42 oz. of chicken broth
32 oz. chicken stock
chives
Gruyere 6 oz.
Humboldt Fog cheese (probably only available at nice grocery stores like Whole Foods, but totally worth it) small amount 3 ounces maybe
Mesculun Greens (if you cannot find, then spring mix will do)
8 oz. of Cheddar (not shredded, shred your own)
Can of Black Beans
Can of Diced Tomatoes
Can of Corn
celery 3 stalks
1 green pepper
3 white onions
1 bunch of grapes
1 butternut squash
1 carrot
1 Avocado
1 bunch of cilantro
