This Week's Menu wk 2
So, our pantry (we don't really have a pantry) is purged, mostly. I'm glad I was forced to evaluate what we have. I used lots of mixes & helps; which I'd been shoving to the back, mostly because I didn't feel like messing with it at that meal.
I encourage you, be a good steward of what you have. Don't waste.
And building meals around a single ingredient can encourage creativity, not that my meals are creative at all.
For this week, we meal planned on Friday. At dinner. After a quick game of, 'Guess what veggie is at the end of my fork' (stir fry, in a mug), we planned for this week. Each of my kiddos got to choose a meal for dinner. My girl chose chicken, my boy, burgers.
Here goes:
Monday
meatloaf with ketchup, onions, rosemary, s/p, oats, 2 eggs, brown sugar sprinkled on top
baked potatoes
tossed salad
apple sauce
*brown tonight & tomorrow's ground beef (3 lbs?) & possibly patty up Friday's burgers
Tuesday
spaghetti
meat
pasta sauce
corn on cob
green beans
going-stale bread (open face in oven w/ butter & garlic salt)
Wednesday
chicken tenders
mixed veggies
tator tots
apple sauce
Thursday
beef stew
stew meat
potatoes
carrots
brown gravy
mandarin oranges
cheddar biscuits (bisquick mix)
Friday
burgers
soy cheese
fries
broccoli
apple sauce
Saturday
K.E.F. (kids eat free!)
Happy Eating!
