Menu Plan Monday 5/28
Yesterday we had Lincoln’s baby blessing. Lots of family came up for the event, so we had a luncheon at our house afterwards. We had a wonderful spread of foods. Mom brought a deli tray, rolls, chips and pasta salad. I put together a fruit salad, strawberry lemonade and a veggie platter. To go with the veggies I mixed up some of Wildtree’s Creamy Ranch dip mix. Oh it was so good!! Even after the luncheon I couldn’t stop snacking on it with the veggies and the chips! I apparently cut up too many veggies though, but that’s alright, because now I have a fresh and ready snack for the rest of the week!Tuesday – cake pan Pizza’s (recipe on friday!)Wednesday – Mark is on his own.

Menu Plan Monday – 5/14
With summer approaching, many of my friends have been talking about their kids summer schedules. They’ve planned something for each day, like “Masterpiece Monday” where they do art work with their kids.I started thinking about it, and decided I wanted to do something similar. My problem is I’m a very go with the flow kind of person. If I do schedule something, and then plans change I have a hard time ever scheduling anything again, because I don’t want to dissappoint.So we’re going to start off simple, and I’m only going to schedule one day – Mondays. We’re calling it “Mondays in the Kitchen”. Since I don’t plan on going anywhere on Mondays while we do laundry, I decided it will be perfect to spend in the kitchen with the kids. We’ll do any prep work for our meals throughout the week, and bake goodies for the weeks snacks. I ran the idea by Princess V last night and she was pretty excited for it.Of course this means I’ll have to change my grocery shopping day to Saturdays instead of Tuesdays, but that’s ok, since Mark can either come with or keep half the kids at home with him.This week we’re preparingTuesday – Family dinner at my auntsWednesday – Tuscan Chicken with Soft Bubble Cheesy Garlic MuffinsThursday – Slow Cooker Italian Chicken with Noodles (repeat from last week)Friday – Tortellini with Peas and ParmesanSaturday – LeftoversSunday – Hamburger HelperDesserts/Snacks -

Menu Plan Monday 4/30
Grocery Shopping with 4 kids, with every one of them wanting to ride in the cart, is quite difficult. I am so glad I stocked our freezer with some meals before little Prince was born, but it’s been 3 weeks, and those meals are gone. So this weeks menu is going to consist mostly of things we have in our pantry. If I have to, I’ll make a night time run to the store, alone, and leave Mark with the sleeping kids. It’s just easier that way.This week the plan isMonday – Meatloaf and corn on the cobTuesday – Bread Bowls with Cheesy Potato SoupWednesday – Girls night!! kids with Nana and Opah, Mark is on his own.Friday – Church party. I’m making 2 dozen (maybe more) cookies. I’m going to try these SnickerdoodlesSaturday – LasagnaSunday – White Bean Tomato and Vegetable Stew -

Menu Plan Monday – 4/9
Well, it’s another crazy meal week here. Planning meals for some is hard enough, but planning when you don’t know how your week is going to turn out is even harder! If you haven’t been able to tell, we have not had Baby Prince yet. He was due last Wednesday on the 4th, but he’s still hanging out in my ever growing belly. However, today I believe will be the day! I have an appointment to go see my OB this morning, and we should be scheduling the hospital for later this afternoon, when Mark is off work. My mom picked up the Princesses last Saturday and will have them until this coming Friday, so I don’t have to worry about food for them – just Mark and I.Here’s a somewhat Meal Schedule for us this week.Monday – hospital foodTuesday – hospital food (Nice romantic dinner provided by the hospital!)Wednesday – posisbly hospital food, or a Freezer Chicken Pot PieThursday – Frozen Pot Stickers (store bought)Friday – Freezer Bean Burritos from Martha StewartSaturday – Frozen Cinnamon Rolls for breakfastSunday – ?I have no energy to think a full week ahead right now. I may try and put up a chicken enchilada today before going to the hospital, and that will give us one more freezer meal.I also have a wonderful Visiting Teacher (sisters from my church that visit me monthly) that has promised to bring me dinner one night when we’re home as well.So what’s on your menu this week? What do you do for meals when you have no idea where you’ll be during the week? -
Menu Plan Monday
Well, this is going to be a very interesting week here at our home. There is a lot of unknowns thanks to baby Prince here and my Grandma’s funeral. So I haven’t been able to plan a menu like I would’ve liked to. Here is what I do have though!
Monday – BLT Pasta Salad (plans changed last week, so it’s getting bumped)
Tuesday – home made pizza
Wednesday – Hamburger Helper
Thursday – Possibly fast food on the way to Grandma’s viewing. OR Ramen Noodles
Friday – More than likely eating at my parents after the funeral. Otherwise sandwiches.
Saturday – Dinner at my parents
Sunday – Sloppy JoesEdit – I have not had baby Prince yet. Sorry for any confusion! Unfortunately my kids have all decided to come at different times during pregnancy. So I’ve gone almost exactly at 40 weeks, at 37 weeks, and at 41 weeks. It makes it hard to plan anything these last few weeks and days, including meals.
