Menu Plan Monday
This was my original meal plan for this week with sides were to be determined later:
2. Cheesy Potatoes
3. Chicken Pot Pie
4. Spaghetti
5. Easy Sausage Quiche
6. Loaded Baked Potatoes
And this is what we ended up eating this past week:
Monday: This day I decided to make Egg Roll in a Bowl along with some baked homemade egg rolls . I made enough to have leftovers for lunches this week. I used the egg roll dish to make the egg rolls too. I served steamed broccoli alongside.
Tuesday: I took chicken out of the freezer on Monday and placed in the fridge to thaw for Tuesday night dinner. I've been wanting chicken tenders for a while now, so I just decided I was going to have to make some, photo above. I also made some homemade cole slaw to go with them.
Wednesday: There was still chicken left from Tuesday, so I went off menu, cooked it and made Chicken & Chile Chimichangas.
This is such a simple, but good recipe and one I made back when I was married. I ordered a Chimichanga in the Mexican restaurant we went to on my first real date back in the early 1980s.

Thursday: Since we've had meat several days in a row, I decided to do a meatless dinner tonight. Loaded Baked Potatoes is what we had for dinner on this night.
Friday: Dinner tonight was homemade pizza with pepperoni and black olives. I also made a salad to go along with it.
Saturday: Dinner tonight was grilled chicken, with rice and a side salad.
Sunday: Dinner today was Spaghetti using sweet Italian sausage, onions, tomatoes, and a new to me sauce from Italy. I also made some garlic bread using us some hamburger buns we had on hand.
Beverages this week included Sweet Tea, Almond Milk, Sprite, Lemonade, V8-Juice, Pineapple Juice, or YooHoo.
Here is what I'm planning for this week, sides to be determined later:
1. Meatloaf
2. Chicken Pot Pie
3. Cheese Enchiladas
4. Sticky Pineapple Chicken
5. Chow Mein & Egg Rolls
6. Hamburgers with Cheese
7. Loaded Baked Potatoes
Of course this could change based on my energy level that day or any other circumstance. :)

I am going to make coleslaw with one of the cabbages from the garden.
ReplyDeleteOh, that sounds so good, Kim.
DeleteLooks really great! We're still in a very uninspired place on the menu, due to kitchen, so things like leftovers from the freezer are on the menu. I did make a caprese salad, using tomatoes & basil from the garden (and, fresh mozzarella), so that should spice things up a bit.
ReplyDeleteThank you, your caprese salad sounds so good and refreshing.
DeleteThat menu is restaurant quality! I will be truing the recipes you linked.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sam. You're the best!
