Happy Sunday! I’ve been a bit lazy this morning so I’m getting my menu up a little late. Nate and my sister are trying to get me to plan on Saturday so that I can publish first thing Sunday morning. Hmmmm…that would involve being even more organized and I don’t know if I can handle it!
I used my entire menu from last week. It’s a miracle! So, no carry-overs. Which means more planning. Blergh. 😉
MONDAY:
– Grammy’s Orange Chicken
– Rice and veggie
TUESDAY:
– Chili
– Corncake toppers
WEDNESDAY:
– Spaghetti and meatballs
– Salad and garlic bread
THURSDAY:
– Leftovers
FRIDAY:
– Hamburgers
– Carrot sticks and fresh fruit
SATURDAY:
– Eat out
SUNDAY:
– Breakfast for dinner: Waffles and scrambled eggs

You know the drill – get to work! Plan your menus and then share them with us! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got cookin’!
It’s been a tough winter and I’m ready for warmer weather. So this week, I made a menu celebrating Spring being almost here.
Sun: Chicken with sugar snap peas & Spring herbs, mashed potatoes
Mon: Grilled shrimp, avocado, fennel & orange salad
Tue: Spring onion soup with crusty bread
Wed: Spring stir fried chicken with sugar snap peas & carrots
Thu: Spring Linguine with fava beans, ricotta, and peas
Fri: Trout, salad
Sat: Out to celebrate Spring is almost here & St. Patrick’s Day!
hopefully the weather will follow suit and do what the menu says! 🙂
Here’s my plan for the week!

I’m with Kate, I need the orange chicken in my life now. I haven’t planned mine but I know short ribs and roast are happening. Possibly steak sandwiches. And cake. Always cake.
can you come move in with us. I could deal with short ribs and cake in my life. 😉
That’s funny you used everything on your menu last week and I think I only used 3 meals so a lot of carry overs this week. Actually forgot about our grandson’s 2nd birthday party, but only when I wrote out the menu. May have to start putting the date as well as the day on the menu plan. 🙂
Sunday – Breaded shrimp, buttered noodles
Monday – Cheeseburgers and fries
Tuesday – Beef tips, noodles, mushrooms and peas in gravy
Wednesday – Salisbury Steak, mashed potatoes, corn
Thursday – White pizza, salad
Friday – Leftovers
Saturday – High school band sub, soup
I am always surprised how many times I publish these menus and then, a few days later, realize I totally forget about holidays and birthdays when I’m planning! 😉

Oh I had forgotten about your orange chicken recipe!! Made it this week for the first time in a while. Served it with roasted cabbage slices smothered in garlic and…ohemgee.
I made rice too but we didn’t need it. I think my husband alone ate half a head of cabbage with the chicken on top.
SO good! Thanks for putting in on your menu this week and reminding me. I made an extra batch for the freezer and I’m already ready to eat it again!
you’re welcome! I’m so glad you guys love it!
