Meal Plan April 8-15, 2013

I know, its been a while. Right?  I thought I would pop on and post my meal plan for this week. *gasp* *shock* haha…

For breakfast this week:

Sis is opting for toast
Brandon is opting for cereal
and I am opting for Greek Yogurt.

For lunch this week:

The kids will be packing their lunches for school, as usual.
I will be rotating between Thai Chicken Salad and Turkey Meatloaf Muffins

For dinner this week:

Monday

• Chicken Tenders
• Fries (for the kids)
• chicken salad (for me)

Tuesday

• Salisbury steak
• rice
• steamed veggies (broccoli, carrots)

Wednesday

• Burgers (burgers for the kids, faux fry for me)
• Fries

Thursday

• Omelets

Friday

 

(Pizza topped with Fat free provolone, olives, turkey pepperoni, baby spinach, bell peppers)

• Top your own Pizza Night

Saturday

• Fend Fo Yo Self!

Sunday

• Pork chops with sautéed apples  (recipe here)
• steamed veggies (broccoli, carrots, squash, peppers)

 

So that’s it for us this week.  Amount spent at the grocery – $149 but I still have to pick up some chops, salad mix later in the week, and a few things they were out of at the store so I am guessing this week was about $175 on groceries. Which sounds high, but lately we’ve been spending between $200/$240 so I’lll take $175.

How about it, what are you cooking up this week?

Meal Plan Monday – Sept 23 2012

Such a busy week last week. *sigh*  This week is going to be a pretty simple week food wise.  Mr C will be very busy all week, so quick meals are the main goal to get us through the week…

So my menu for this week…

SUNDAY (Mr C chooses)

• Chili Mac (yea, hamburger helper. bluh…)   I add a crap ton of veggies to mine to make it have some flavor.  LOL
• Grilled Cheese  (Sis and I prefer provolone, the fellas like American)

MONDAY (Kids Night 1 – Bran Cooks)

• Spaghetti (with homemade sauce )
• Salad
• garlic toast

TUESDAY (Kids Night 2 – Sis Cooks)

• Chicken Fries
• Spinach Salad

WEDNESDAY

• EZ Sausage and Tator Bake
• mac n cheese
• rolls
• salad

THURSDAY

• Turkey Breast Roast   <3
• Mashed Potatoes
• Baked Beans
• Salad
• Rolls

FRIDAY

SATURDAY (Lazy Day)

• FEND FO YO SELF NIGHT

SUNDAY

• burgers
• fries

Do you plan your weeks cooking ahead of time?  I do.  On Sunday morning I sit down in my office and I plan out what we are going to eat all week.

Meal planning for me, really, is pretty easy.  My Mr. works a weird shift at work that rotates so he is only home for dinner a few nights per week.  Those nights I try to cook a NICE meal with the trimmings.  I mean, he works hard and he deserves it.

On the nights Mr. C isn’t home, I still cook, but those meals are more KID FRIENDLY.  Anything to lessen the amount of whining I have to listen to – WORKS.  lol…

Once I have my “loose” menu made (because lets be honest here…sometimes I just don’t feel like making what’s on the list!), I head upstairs to check the pantry and fridge and make out my grocery list for the week.

Mr C likes to go shopping at like 3am when there is NO ONE in their right (or wrong) mind at Wal-Mart.  Since he is used to being up all night anyway, and I hate to go to Wal-Mart this works for us.  Plus, he seems to spend a lot less when he goes shopping with my list – than we do when I go shopping with my list. LOL!

So what’s on your menu for this week?

Meal Plan Monday – Sept 17 - 23rd

I know, I know… Long time no post.  I KNOW!  OK!  Gosh….  *blink. blink blink*

I’m really hoping to get back into the habit of posting. I swear I am.  Life is crazy, seems more often than not, now a days – and blogging my grocery plans have just not been very high on my priority list.  HOWEVER…  I need to start blogging them again because, it seems, when I don’t blog them…I am less likely to stick to the plan!
