Menu Plan Monday

Menu Planning Monday

Last week went according to plan. In fact, I even cooked more meals than I had planned. We skipped “Date Night” and I cooked (or at least fixed food, football food), all weekend. This week is going to be a lot easier – lots of eating out and a sandwich night! Not very exciting, but nice for me to not cook as much 🙂

Thanks to Laura at OrgJunkie for organizing and hosting this each week! Go check out her blog and you’ll find tons more recipes and menu plans.

last Friday – we skipped “Date Night” – I fixed Shrimp Fried Rice, Potstickers and Eggrolls

last Saturday – we didn’t go out of town, and our alma mater played football Saturday night on TV – we had cheese sticks and “Pigs in a Blanket” 🙂

Sunday – more football food – this time Wings

Monday – Tacos, refried beans

Tuesday Grilled Pineapple Chicken, Grilled Pineapple, Pan Roasted Potatoes

Wednesday – Sandwich Night

Thursday – hopefully dinner out at PF Chang’s (our new one opened a few weeks ago and we haven’t been!)

Friday – hopefully Date Night, if I get to pick, I want to go to my favorite Italian place

Saturday – TBD, may be out of town

Sunday – TBD, football food of some kind

    […] I make a menu every week, and almost always ask Tim if there’s something in particular that he wants.  98% of the time, he says whatever I plan in fine.  Sometimes he’ll answer something like “tacos”, “hamburgers”, “sloppy joes” or “meatloaf” (some of his favorites). Needless to say, he never asks for fruits, veggies or whole grains   Anyway, he came in one day last week and said “you need to buy a pineapple soon so we can grill it and have pineapple chicken with it”.  Which is a big deal – Tim being hungry for something in particular and asking me to make it.  So, of course I had to do that. Even though the pineapples (cut and cored, in a nice little plastic container) were over 4 bucks each, I bought one and we had it tonight.  If you want to see the recipes for the pineapple chicken, grilled pineapple and roasted potatoes, you can click on the links from my menu (here).
