Yes, I am recycling last week's meal plan. We ended up only having the quesdillas. Bob had chicken last weekend, then our favorite restaurant had his favorite chicken parm last week so he had to have it on Monday. Since we ate out Monday's meal, I was planning to move each meal down a day, but he had chicken again (on a salad this time) for lunch last Tuesday. Needless to say, he didn't want chicken for supper so I made a dish his mom used to make. There was so much leftover we had it again on Wednesday. Thursday I did not cook because I didn't feel like it after sitting on the side of the road for hours.

At least the grocery list for this week will be short!

Menu Plan Monday #5

With the new year upon us, I have decided to get back into the habit of planning and posting my menu plan each Monday. I haven't been very good about planning since I posted my last Menu Plan Monday menu. Planning means fewer sandwiches and last minute runs to the store for some sort of meat that isn't frozen rock solid. It also means less eating out & healthier meals. It's time to PLAN again!!

Menu Plan Monday #1

Each day around lunch time I begin to think what in the world am I going to make for dinner. I have decided I NEED to plan my menu out at the beginning of each week. The plan is, of course, not set in stone, but it will allow me to have a plan to follow. It also allows me to make sure I have all the ingredients I need to prepare each meal in the house. Yes, even with my stockpile from playing the Grocery Game, I run out of things occasionally. Usually, it is a produce, dairy, or meat product, but I do run out.

In my travels around the blog world, I ran across Menu Plan Monday. If I make menu planning a little fun, maybe I will keep it up. I know I will find new recipes in the process, and that is always fun.

Here it goes...
