Menu Plan Monday

I made a few changes last week to the menu. I used the leftover chicken from Monday to make a chicken salad with ring noodles, craisins and shredded apple and Parmesan dressing. We had BLTs on Tuesday instead of Thursday, Wednesday we had tacos made with ground turkey and black beans, Thursday was steak on the grill, potato salad and lettuce salad, and Saturday we grilled a ham and had sides from the deli. I don't have a very specific plan this week, but at least it's a start! Here's what we're eating this week:
Sunday--Leftovers
Monday--Brats, cole slaw, baked beans, cherry cheese pie
Tuesday--Chicken & Rice, salad
Wednesday--A pasta dish
Thursday--Breakfast for supper
Friday--Pizza
Saturday--Birthday girl's choice
Hopefully I'll get a few new recipes up this week, like cauliflower/pea salad, rhubarb bread and cherry cheese pie.

Menu Plan Monday

The only thing I changed on last week's menu was on Tuesday when we grilled chicken breasts instead of having cashew chicken. Saturday we had ribs (slow cooked in the oven then finished on the grill) with deli coleslaw and potato salad. I have a menu planned for the week, but it may change after I go grocery shopping. Here's what we're eating this week:
Sunday--Chicken burgers, fresh fruit, raw carrots
Monday--Tomato bacon chicken in the crockpot, mashed potatoes, carrots
Tuesday--Chicken soup or hotdish with leftover chicken from last night, crescent rolls
Wednesday--Chili mac made with ground turkey
Thursday--BLT's
Friday--Pizza
Saturday--TBD

Menu Plan Monday

Last week I stayed pretty close to my plan. On Thursday we had fish, noodles and peas and Saturday hubby and oldest son were gone, so the rest of us had leftover spaghetti. I often find that I don't plan a specific meal for Saturday as I never know if there will be leftovers, who will be home, what we'll be doing all day, etc. Here's what we're eating this week:
Sunday--Pork tenderloin, homemade baked beans, corn on the cob
Monday--Birthday boy's choice of bacon cheeseburgers and curly fries, plus raw carrots and birthday cake and ice cream of course
Tuesday--Cashew chicken and rice
Wednesday--Tacos
Thursday--Perch and sides TBD
Friday--Pizza
Saturday--TBD
