meal planning monday

as far as meal planning goes for this week, i don't have too much to do.



monday: i just need some chicken from the store and i'm going to use up some stuff in the fridge for dinner tonight. we will have a yummy mixture of roasted carrots, prunes, onion and chicken over couscous. one of our favorites! ridiculously easy too!

tuesday: pork loin, roasted sweet potatoes, steamed green beans (matt LOVES a meat, starch and veggie!)

wednesday: the merciful day of leftovers! :)




that's all the meals i need for this week! yea! gosh, that's a beautiful thing! :)

menu planning monday

i confess i sneak around on random strangers' blogs on the internet. i'm sure most of you do it too. ;) the blogs are typically friends of friends or something like that, but anyway, i got the idea of of posting what i have planned for my menu this week from a strangers' blog. if you would like any of the recipes that i post, please let me know and i'll share with you.

monday: breaded tilapia, roasted asparagus, and orange glazed carrots (YUM! it was pretty easy and it turned out great!)


tuesday: spaghetti with meatballs (i make a ton of meatballs at once and then freeze them for future spaghetti nights.)


wednesday: chicken with paprika sauce over egg noodles and a salad.


thursday: eggplant-ricotta bake and a salad (i'll make an extra to freeze)


friday: leftovers


saturday: i'll take saturday off!


sunday: easter - eating with friends and i don't know what i'm responsible for yet.

i hope this is helpful for friends who don't like to plan their meals out. i can do it for you and you can copy me if you want. :) i typically go to the grocery store on sunday or monday. my newest idea is to have fish on the night i go to the store so it is fresh.
