Did you know that Menu Planning was a weekly blog event? Laura at I’m An Organizing Junkie has organized an entire event on weekly menu planning. What a fantastic idea and what a great source of inspiration! There are over 100 blogs linked to her- surely that’s a great place to find inspiration! Be sure and head over to Menu Plan Monday to check out all the meal-planning inspiration!
Another fairly basic week here. I am glad to be back into a cooking routine after the summer of toss-togethers and salads. In the coming weeks here I also hope to start breaking down some of my meal plans cost-wise and putting together a few weeks of budget plans. I’m sure we all could use that from time to time!
Sunday: Poor Man’s Steak, Cauliflower and Egg Noodle Casserole
Monday: Frittata, Applesauce, Sauteed Chard
Tuesday: Simple Clam Chowder, Homemade Honey-Wheat Bread Woops, I forgot we have a friend dance night-we’ll be going out for pizza and bumping this to another week.
Wednesday: Apple-Cheddar Turkey Meatballs, Spinach Salad, Egg Noodles
Thursday: Honey-Pecan Crusted Chicken, Spinach Salad, Creamy Rice, Apple Crisp
Friday: Lazy Lasagna, Garlic Bread, Spinach Salad
Saturday: Out to dinner
**Lol, edited on Friday because I just realized that I totally deviated from the weekly meal plan. I’m not sure how that happened… how did I go from planning goulash to making turkey meatballs? And how did burrito night turn into Honey-Pecan chicken? No clue, but there it is.
The cauliflower and egg noodle casserole looks really interesting! I know what you mean, I’m looking forward to routine too after throwing stuff together all summer!
Audra, I ended up not making the casserole and just roasted the cauliflower. But I still want to try the casserole sometime-it’s in my Amish cookbook, basically cauliflower, egg noodles, seasoning and a bechamel topped with crumbs. I think.
Thanks Erika! I appreciate knowing what’s in it!
Thanks so much for joining us!! Looks like you are a seasoned professional!!
