Menu Plan Monday

Posted by admin in Menu Plan

Okay so as we are moving at the end of the month I’ve been working on keeping things simple.

We’ve been packing like crazy and it takes allot of time and half of my kitchen is in boxes so…

This week:

Sunday – Spaghetti with simple sauce (Jamie Oliver recipe)

Monday – Salmon patties, banana muffins, Rice, pears and cantaloupe

Tuesday – Pasta/rice and Veg. I haven’t really thought this out… Its Hubs has pool league on Tuesday nights so its kind of a “whatever is in the pantry” night with the kids… Maybe I’ll use the left over rice with some bratwurst and make a stir fry. Maybe homemade mac and cheese with broccoli and chicken… (Rachel Ray recipe)

Wednesday – Crockpot Pot Roast(celery, carrots, onion, garlic, tomatoes), smashed potatoes, gravy and biscuits

Thursday – Tacos (you really must try these with dill pickles ~_*)

Friday – Dinner at the Old Spaghetti factory

Saturday – Dinner at My Mother-in-Law’s house for my nieces’ birthdays

Grocery shopping will be either Friday or Saturday. I’m counting on Saturday morning. Usually on Grocery shopping day we have a simple crockpot meal or I pick up a “bake your own pizza” for about 5 dollars at my grocery.

Next week

Sunday – Crockpot Chicken I was thinking of a baked chicken in the crock. Make a foil ring to keep it off the bottom, stuff it with a lemon and some herbs, maybe some roasted veg, etc.

Monday – Leftover chicken shepherd’s pie with home made biscuits

Tuesday – Spaghetti with homemade french bread and green beans

Wednesday – Salmon Patties, Pears, rice and banana muffins (Its a family favorite)

Thursday – Crockpot Baked potato bar (this is the day of the move. I want to make sure its a simple ready made meal) for a great recipe check out recipezzar or A Year of Slow Cooking

Friday – Home made Pizza

Saturday – Crockpot Black bean Nachos
