It’s Monday–time to share our dinner-time game plans for the week! A little effort with meal planning at the beginning of the week helps me to provide my family with nutritious, budget-friendly meals, and also allows me to get my act together when our family’s headed in several different directions.
This week is looking a little busy in the evenings, so I’ll be hitting up a few of our go-to family favorites in the evenings that don’t take a ton of effort, but make most of the crew happy (with 6 of us, I usually settle for most…too many opinions to please everyone every day!)
Anyway, here’s my plan:
Monday: Beef & Noodles, green beans (quick & easy–bowtie pasta mixed with leftover pot roast and gravy that I froze a few weeks ago!)
Tuesday: Chicken quesadillas, broccoli, and apple slices
Wednesday: Poor Man’s Lasagna
Thursday: leftovers
Friday: Grabbing dinner on the road on our way to see the Lake Erie Monsters play!
Saturday: Soup & game night at church–taking Baked Potato Soup
Sunday: Spaghetti and Meatballs, salad, homemade applesauce, homemade garlic bread for my son’s family b-day party
