Menu Plan Monday

We’re starting another week.  Littlebit attends preschool one day this week and then next week will settle into her two days a week schedule.  I’ve been struggling lately with exhaustion (ugh) and with the length of my to-do list.  Littlebit has been struggling with naps and things just feel a wee bit crazy.

Thankfully, we’re eating (mostly) out of the freezer this week.

Monday

Macaroni and cheese, chicken nuggets and cucumbers

Tuesday

Chicken brushetta casserole, garlic bread and salad

Wednesday

Taco spaghetti and corn

Thursday

BBQ pork sammies, sweet potato fries and corn

Friday

Pizza and a movie night

Saturday

Family in town for Littlebit’s birthday party, so we may eat out

Sunday

Littlebit’s birthday!

Next weekend, we will be cooking Once a Month Mom’s September plan with childcare help from my Mother-in-law.  Big Daddy and I are actually looking forward to the process and I’m hoping it will save us money AND time because time always seems like it’s at SUCH a premium.

Menu Plan Monday

Well, this includes Sunday. We find our week works better if we shop on Sunday. Otherwise, finding the time is difficult and at this point in my pregnancy, I could use the help from Big Daddy and the Princess.

Sunday
Marinated beef tenders on the grill, asparagus and watermelon (yeah, I’m craving watermelon. So what?)

Monday
Chicken Stir Fry with brown rice

Tuesday
Chicken Andouille Casserole and steamed veggies

Wednesday
Swiss Steak with mashed cauliflower (instead of potatoes for lower carb. I may actually try mixing a few potates in to try and change the taste a little)

Thursday
Crock pot pork ribs, au gratin potatoes and watermelon


Friday

Pizza night! (WOOT!)

Saturday
Open ended.

Also on the list this week:
French Toast Sticks for the Freezer
