I feel like we haven't done this post in a long time! I have to work backwards a bit, I dont know what we're having at the end of this week.
Friday: Cheeseburgers on the grill
Sat: we had date night, my mom made the boys chicken & mashed potatoes
Sun: Two-Timin' Pasta Bake (found on pinterest)
Mon: chili
Tues: Bean & chicken quesidillas (using the leftover chicken from Saturday's meal)
Wed: clear the fridge of all leftovers
Thur: hot dogs, salad
Re: Menus
I was just thinking it had been awhile since we'd done this!
Friday - take out (I had a work event)
Saturday - Mexican Pizza
Sunday - pasta with shrimp, roasted tomatoes and parm cheese with roasted asparagus on the side
Monday - turkey burgers, tater tots
Tuesday - leftovers
Tonight - baked fish, pasta/veggie side
I already have next week's all figured out...
Mon-Disney
Tues- Disney
Wed-Disney.....
etc.
hehehe. This week has been a total half-assed attempt at meal planing. Lots of "a hunk of frozen meat from the freezer with a veggie" or "some shape of pasta with a cheese or tomato sauce" So I won't bore you with the details. But the Disney/Vacation excitement has taken over. I ordered groceries from garden grocer (like my only contribution to this trip) so now I am all geared up.
