Weekly Meal Plan: 4/4 thru 4/10

A few days late and few dollars short. Ha! Wow, okay, the week's almost over, but I'm still going to post. Mainly because the carpet guy is here cleaning the carpets, which means I'm in the kitchen with the laptop, which means quick, easy posts.

This week's goal is really more healthy, well balanced meals. I do promise to get the last few recipes from last week up ASAP.

So, here it is:

Sunday:  Out
Monday:  Grilled tilapia, navy beans, Caesar salad sandwiches
Tuesday:  Ground Beef & Shredded Potato Casserole, side salad
Wednesday:  Chicken Stir Fry grilled tilapia, navy beans, Caesar salad
Thursday:  Easy Italian Chicken Legs Breasts (slow cooker), roasted potatoes, Italian-style green beans
Friday:  Honey Mustard Salmon, brown rice, spinach/peas
Saturday:  Out

I will definitely have recipes up for the casserole, the Italian chicken, and the salmon.

Weekly Meal Plan (3/28 thru 4/4)

So, here it is once again. I did pretty good sticking the plan last week. Our goal this week is to stick to it even better. My goal this week is also to make some these "heavier" meals a big lighter. B had a big hand in choosing this week's menu items, though had it been up to him, we would be having ALL comfort food.

Meals:

Sunday:  Chicken Fried Steak w/mashed potatoes and gravy, and green beans
Monday:  Chicken Stir Fry w/brown rice
Tuesday:  Tilapia, navy beans, Caesar salad
Wednesday:  Meatloaf, mac 'n cheese, veggie/salad
Thursday:  Baked Potato Soup, BLT/BLA
Friday:  Chicken Pot Pie, salad
Saturday:  Open

In case you missed it, some of last week's meals have been added to the blog and check back on these post for links to the recipes.

Happy Sunday!

Meal Plan 3/7 thru 3/13

Trying a little something new to get the blog back up and running. It's a new goal for me. I've meal planned in the past, but never very strictly. That is something I'm trying to get better at for so many reasons:  structure, money saving, healthy diet.

The plan is to have this post up on Sundays as that is when my meal week starts. I go Sunday through Saturday since I do my grocery shopping on Sundays. As should be obvious, I'm a bit behind this week. So, I'll save some of my long-winded explaination for next week. Simply, this post will contain my meals for the week and posts during the week will give recipes when I think the recipes warrant posting. I will continue my baking posts too.

Meals for 3/7 thru 3/13
  • Sunday--Pork Carnitas Tacos, rice, black beans
  • Monday--Turkey burgers, mac 'n cheese
  • Tuesday--Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad
  • Wednesday--Grilled tilapia, navy beans, salad
  • Thursday--Lemony Chicken, brown rice, veggie
  • Friday--Open/leftovers
  • Saturday--Ribs, oven-roasted potatoes, veggie/salad
See you tomorrow night for some recipes!
