Recap of last week: Monday we opted to add ground beef to the mac-n-cheese w/ broccoli and made it a one-dish meal, instead of doing the chicken nuggets. Tuesday, we tried something different with some of the shredded chicken and made a rice / chicken / broth / cheese dish, then had the BBQ chicken sandwiches with all the fixings for lunch on Wednesday. The chili was very good Wednesday night and we are still eating on it. We did a light dinner of grilled cheese sandwiches Thursday night, then Friday’s dinner plan got changed because my husband got overtime at the last minute, so I am going to try that recipe for tonight. Saturday we ate while we were taking care of stuff in the city and Sunday, of course was Easter. There was some variant to the plan last week, but it was a lot closer to plan than I anticipated, so doing the menu plan helped a lot and meals weren’t as hectic.
MONDAY – Takeout (BBQ)
TUESDAY – Spaghetti with ground beef and sausage; small lettuce & cucumber salad
WEDNESDAY – Chicken nuggets, mixed veggies
THURSDAY – Sunday Roast Chicken, corn, green beans, carrots
FRIDAY – Breakfast for dinner: pancakes, eggs, bacon, toast
SATURDAY – Grilled Cheese sandwiches and soup
SUNDAY – Possible plans OR Roast flavored rice casserole, corn on the cob
If you looked at this list on Monday, it might have looked a little different! We opted for takeout Monday evening and afterwards I did a little tweaking to the list.
Breakfast for dinner - how cool my kids would love that.
Glad to hear MPM is working for ya! I deviate from my plan at times, too, but i am never stressing about what I can make, or not having enough ingredients on hand for it. Gotta love that! Have a great week. =)
