Menu Plan for the Week

I really appreciated hearing from so many of you last week in regard to menu planning. Sounds like many of you have great methods of organizing your meal plans for your family. If you find my menu plan somewhat overwhelming, please read through this post to learn the method behind my madness. :)

I love using this Creamy Mac and Cheese recipe to make Tuna Casserole.
I just add two cans of tuna and it’s done. One of the easiest meals ever to put together!

Here are the meals we’re looking to have this week:

Sunday, January 15
Oatmeal, pears
Tuna casserole, peas
High School Huddle – Chili with fritos, cheese, and sour cream; carrot sticks, olives, chocolate chip cookies

Monday, January 16
Simple soaked pancakes, blueberries
Taco corn fritters, applesauce
Italian cream cheese chicken, tossed salad

Tuesday, January 17
Fried eggs on toast, clementines
Sloppy cornbread muffins, fruit salad
Roasted chicken, carrots, potatoes, gravy

Wednesday, January 18
Elias’ birthday – still waiting to hear his bday meal choices! :)

Thursday, January 19
Mini breakfast pizza, oranges
Chicken tortilla soup, carrots
Beefy enchilada bake, tossed salad

Friday, January 20
Peanut butter honey toast, applesauce
Quesadillas, apples
Homemade pizza

Saturday, January 21
Mini apple pies
Grilled cheese sandwiches, tomato soup
Roast, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans

What’s on your menu this week?

    I’ve been working plans, and then actually recording what we ate and keeping that as the permanent record.

    Looking at yours, I’m adding the taco corn fritters to the stack of things for this week!

    Considering my 3 year old’s new meal of choice is “peanut honey sanditches” and clementines, we will have those. A lot! He knows he can only have it once a day, and the rest of his meals and snacks need to be something else. And we’re moving in a week, so everything we are eating is coming straight out of the freezer or cupboards. The less I have to pack and move, the better!

    I’ve been making meal plans for every two weeks in preparation for moving to the “booneys” someday (it’s our hope to find out house with a little bit of country). The one thing I’m finding out is that I’ll need to make plans for meals that call for buttermilk and the like the first week and then all else can be made the second week. It hasn’t been easy. But, I’m learning. I wonder how people do it every two weeks or even by month? How do they keep buttermilk? Is there a powder form? This effort is one HUGE learning experience for me. :-)
