Menu Monday – #42
Heather says:
We’ve been working hard on eating a bit healthier around here, lots more produce for breakfast, lunch and snacks. Dinner, for all of football season, has been a bit of a pain. I make dinner, package it up for the oldest, Ray heats it back up at dinner time for the younger three and I eat when I get home around 9 at night. That’s our Monday to Thursday, but thankfully the end of this is in sight.
How do you deal with getting everyone fed when your schedule is temporarily ridiculous?
Here is a menu planning printable that can help make planning and grocery shopping a lot easier. I find if I look at what I have on hand and what I need while I plan our menu, I’m less likely to impulse shop and more likely to use of stuff we already have in the house.
I’d love some more ideas.
In the meantime here’s what we’re having.
Monday – Simple Autumn Skillet
Tuesday Garlic and Soy Chicken Thighs, Mashed Sweet Potatoes, Oven Roasted Broccoli
Wednesday – Fake ‘n Bake Pork Chops, Green Beans, Rice
Thursday Macaroni and Cheese, Collard Greens
Friday Chicken Bog, Sautéed Yellow Squash
Saturday Fish Tacos, Refried Beans, Cabbage Slaw, Chipotle Sauce
(This is my photo project this week, hopefully the light and errands cooperate)
Sunday
Wine Braised Chuck Roast with Balsamic Roast Carrots and Rice or Roasted Potatoes depending on mood.
What’s for dinner at your place?
