Next week is my last week of summer (I'm a teacher)
So we're out quite a bit. I am planning some simple meals to have when we're home. I'll be back to my usual day set plan next week.
We're having chicken pesto burgers, chickpea tacos, and Greek pizza ingredients on hand.
I'll play. I used to post here often. Our menu is lame because my due date is next Saturday and I don't want anything to go to waste.
Sunday is dinner at FIL's I believe he is making steak and we will bring a pie from this new pie bakery. Normally I would make something to bring but my hands hurt from pregnancy carpal tunnel.
Monday: we're having tomato salad with flat bread. Kinda like pizza but the tomatoes are cold and on the side.
Tuesday-Wednesday: chicken sausage and peppers over pasta with salad.
Thursday: spinach frittatta
Friday: we usually go out or we will tap into something from the freezer.
Sundy: Shnitzel
Monday: Crock pot Round Steak (Over rice for hubby and egg noodles for me)
Tuesday: Crock Pot Beef and Broccoli
Wednesday: Jambalaya over Rice
Thursday: Leftovers
Friday: Crock Pot Pulled Pork Sandwiches
Saturday: Eating Out!
I'm not sure what days we're having what, but here's what I'm cooking this week (a lot will go into the freezer for later meals)
homemade sloppy joes with potatoes and edemame
Indian spiced lentils with chicken
flank steak fajitas
homemade tomato soup
salmon baked in a mustard vinaigrette and served over broccoli and pasta
shrimp and veggies (asparagus, peas, red and yellow peppers) with angel hair pasta tossed in a chipolte Parmesan cream sauce
So far on the menu I have:
Tacos
Chicken Quesadilla
Lasagna with salad on the side.
Still working on the rest of the week. I need to get better at meal planning.

Monday: Grilled pork chops, dilly beans, corn on the co
Tuesday: Spaghetti with pesto, tomatoes, toast with roasted garlic
Wednesday: Tacos, salsa (from CSA tomatoes...we got a lot!)
