Menu Plan for the Week

October 5, 2008 by Laura 6 Comments

We’ve got a houseful of company coming this weekend, so I’m super excited and working hard to get ready for that! We’ll be going a little easier on the school work this week and a little heavier on the house work. I’m sure by the end of the week when I hand my boys yet another “to do” list, they’ll be begging me to let them do “just one more page of math instead…” :)

Here’s what’s on the menu this week:

Sunday, October 5
Breakfast burritoes
Hamburgers, fruit
Leftovers

Monday, October 6
Honey wheat muffins, bananas
Homemade pizza, pears
Roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas

Tuesday, October 7
Fried eggs on toast, oranges
Baked potatoes, cottage cheese with peaches
Beef stroganoff, green beans

Wednesday, October 8
Peanut butter honey toast, apples
Grilled cheese, tomato soup
Shepherd’s pie

Thursday, October 9
Granola, kefir-fruit smoothies
Chicken tostadas, strawberry-peach slushies
Cheesy potato soup, chicken noodle soup, veggie tray, cornbread

Friday, October 10
Whole wheat pancakes, eggs and bacon, fruit
Sandwiches, chips, fruit, carrot sticks, cookies
Lasagna, tossed salad, green beans, homemade bread

Saturday, October 11
Egg, sausage and potato scramble, fruit
Sloppy joes, baked beans, veggie tray
Nacho Bar

    I was starting to wonder if you ever had sandwiches and chips for lunch! HA! We have that almost every day! I’m cooking sloppy joes for tonight! I’m going to try and bake a pie later this week for my son. He loves cherry pie!

    The menu looks great, and I agree…hosting is so much fun when most of the cooking is done beforehand. :) Enjoy your weekend!!
