Menu Plan Monday

Menu Planning Monday

I’m really late today with my menu, but there’s a reason. I have a refrigerator overflowing with food left from our Super Bowl party yesterday! I probably don’t need to cook that much this week, but hey, let’s face it – this is all junk food, and as much as I’d like to live off of chips and dip, sausage balls and Lit’l Smokies for a week, I don’t think that’s very prudent. 😀

So, here’s a basic plan for the week:

Monday – Super Bowl party leftovers (Taco Soup over Fritos, hot dogs)

Tuesday – Chicken Stir Fry, Egg Rolls (trying to use up the carrots, broccoli and sugar snap peas in the veggie tray from the party)

Wednesday – Light Night before Tim weighs in at work…. either Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese or a big Grilled Chicken Salad

Thursday – Crockpot BBQ Chicken, Smashed potatoes, Sauteed Green Beans

Friday – Date Night or Spaghetti (didn’t have this last week)

Saturday/Sunday – TBD

As always, be sure to cruise on over to Laura’s blog and check out the other participants’ menus. Last week, there were over 80 that were posted!!!

    I just love Spaghetti. It’s affordable, versatile and delicious. Happy Library Lover’s Month.

  2. Heidi Said,

    Good idea to make stir fry when using up a veggie tray. I’ll have to tuck that tip away for future use!

    Oh that Taco Soup recipe looks so good. What exactly are Ranch beans? Will I find those with all the other beans or in the Mexican food aisle? We had our stir fry tonight! Yummy! And I so want to come have leftovers with you! 🙂 Hope you have a great week and look for that recipe tomorrow!

  5. Christy Said,

    We had grilled cheese and tomato soup tonight! It was supposed to be stress free, but the bread I bought had too many “seeds” for my four-year-old! Oh well!

  6. Shawna Said,

    Are those homemade eggsroll? Everything looks really good!

    Good luck with the weigh in, Tim! I think my hubby is in the lead (or pretty close any way) for the Biggest Loser so far at work.

  7. Sherry Said,

    Hurray for taco soup! I finally tried it last week and it was a huge hit! I’ll be making it again really soon!

    Mmmmm…stir fry and egg rolls. That sounds SOOO good! Tom doesn’t like chinese food so I never make it…just order Pei Wei every now and again for my lunch.

    I’m trying two new recipes this week. I got them out of Rachael Ray’s magazine. I will try and post pictures as soon as possible…

  9. Simply Dawn Said,
