Menu Planning Monday

Photobucket

Sorry this is showing up a little later in the day. Things have been hectic at home with Jack's health issues and myself losing a ton of sleep because of it. Here is what our week is looking like. Of course this is a rough sketch. . . many times we end up changing things around!

Monday - Grilled Cheese (made on freshly baked bread) & Tomato Soup

Tuesday - Creamy Chicken Enchilada's that I found on Amanda's blog. Looks SOOO yummy! Check out the rest of her website. Very cool stuff to be found.

Wednesday - Out to Eat with some good friends of ours.

Thursday - Skillet Goulash Although I make it in a large pot and substitute one can of the diced tomatoes with Rotel. We like our goulash a bit spicy. Oh and I add minced garlic as well. We also love garlic around here!

Friday - Haven't quite decided yet. Its a toss up between Spaghetti w/Italian sausage and garlic bread or Tator Tot Hotdish. I suppose it will depend on what kind of week it has been.

Menu Planning Monday

Here we are practically in mid-October. I can hardly believe it! Christmas will be here before we know it. Good thing I have started my Christmas shopping! I am actually almost finished!

Menu planning is going to be interesting for awhile. D and I decided that he will start taking leftovers for his lunches at work. We are also trying to trim our budget up and one area being trimmed is groceries. So things may be looking a little "blah" until I get into the swing of things.

Monday: Chicken Caesar Salads with dinner roll

Tuesday: "Breakfast for Dinner" French Toast made with fresh, homemade bread

Wednesday: Chicken Alfredo (from Costco... we LOVE that stuff and it makes lots of leftovers!)

Thursday: Beef Enchilada's

Friday: Pizza

Saturday: Grandma's 80th Birthday Party

Sunday: Tuna or Egg Salad sandwiches

As always, head over to Laura's blog to get more ideas for your menu planning Monday.

Menu Planning Monday

Another week is already upon us. I can hardly believe we are already 6 days into October! Here in Minnesota, we are keeping our eyes on the skies. Never know when that first snow of the season will hit.

This week is a short one for us. A very dear friend is taking us out to eat on Thursday (destination unknown so far) and then Friday we are leaving to attend a wedding in Iowa. Its our "treat" weekend as we will be staying in a hotel and eating out for nearly every meal (except for breakfasts and the wedding reception). I am so looking forward to it!

So here is our shortened week:

Monday: Goulash (my FAVORITE!!) and dinner rolls (if I can get them thawed in time...)

Wednesday: Chicken & mozzarella stuffed ravioli with red sauce and garlic bread

That's it for our short week! I will try and get a recipe up for my goulash. I am absolutely in LOVE with that dish. Check out Laura's website for many more Menu Planning Monday ideas!
