Menu Plan Monday

Just realized I didn't post this for this week. Ignore the fact that it's Tuesday night. Work with me, people.

Monday: Shrimp Tetrazzini (No, we didn't have it last week. Something came up.)
Tuesday: Meatball Subs - cooked ALL DAY!!! Mama's favorite and a general Family Hit!
Wednesday: Tacos & Burritos - Dora's choice for her birthday
Thursday: Spaghetti with the AWESOME sauce from Tuesday's meatball subs!
Friday: Teenagers here this weekend - Nachos!
Saturday: Out
Sunday: Enchiladas - Angel's choice for her birthday! Hope we can get these made - her birthday party is in the afternoon so we may have to convince her to choose something that can be prepared more quickly!

Menu Plan Monday

Note: Tuesdays & Thursdays are Soup Nights because we don't get home until around 8. Wednesdays are Quick Fix Nights because we have to leave for church at 6. Fridays are Easy Fix Nights because we are gone all day at co-op and I come home exhausted!

Monday: Almost Gyros (because they aren't made from lamb, but leftover roast from last night), Salad
Tuesday: Jamaican Pumpkin Soup, Croissants
Wednesday: Shrimp Tetrazzini, Garlic Bread
(We don't often eat shrimp for health reasons, but we were given quite a bit of shrimp, and we really do love the taste, so we're eating it for now!)
Thursday: Tuscany Peasant Soup, Rolls
Friday: Stuffed Tacos, Salad
Saturday: Valentine's Day - Eat Out!
Sunday: Homemade Pizzas - we usually do this on Saturdays but changed it this week because of Valentine's Day

Menu Plan Monday

I meant to start posting menus last week, sort of a Very Late New Year's Resolution. But, I forgot...oh well. I will try to post recipes to go with most of these each week. I may not get them loaded until the weekend, though.

Note: Tuesdays & Thursdays we don't get home until around 8, so those are Soup Nights. Wednesday nights we have church so we are on a tight schedule. Wednesday night meals must be prepared fairly quickly, and require very little clean-up. Fridays, we are gone all day at co-op, and I come home exhausted so these are often crock-pot days. Saturdays we usually have homemade pizzas. Sundays we often have company for dinner.

Here's last week's menu:

Monday: Cajun Blackened Red Snapper with Sauteed Squash Medley and Dirty Rice

Tuesday: Hot & Sour Soup

Wednesday: Lemon-Pepper Chicken Ziti, Lemony Green Beans

Thursday: Black-Eyed Pea & Sausage Soup

Friday: Cereal

Saturday: Homemade Pizzas

Sunday: (Company) Smoked Roast, Diced Garlic Potatoes, Salad
