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.
Our week starts off with practices for the kiddos, and ends with three separate family meals to celebrate Easter! Should be a busy, but fun week…it’s nice to have a game plan going in to help get us through it!
Here’s my plan for this week:
Monday: Breakfast for dinner: French toast, sausage links, fresh fruit and/or smoothies
Tuesday: Big batch of spaghetti & meatballs to take some to a friend who just had a baby (yay!), salad, homemade applesauce, homemade bread, something yummy for dessert (I think Peanut Butter Cup Pie)
Wednesday: Pot roast, mashed potatoes & gravy, green beans
Thursday: Baked chicken, rice, broccoli
Friday: Fish sticks, mac & cheese, carrots, celery & green peppers
Saturday: Easter dinner with family
Sunday: More Easter dinner with family
