Hey everyone! Real quick before we get down to the weekly menu. I normally would share this in my Friday Show and Tell post, but I feel like this is time sensitive. If you are looking for trusted, reputable, effective organizations to support to help the people of Nepal, click here for a good list from Global Moms Challenge. I hope this is helpful. I know we all feel the urge to help but are often unsure of the best ways.
I actually did do a lot of cooking last week, but we still have some carry-overs from the meal plan. You know me, I like it when items carry over, less thinking involved! 😉

Well, I based our menu on the fact that we had a track meet on Wednesday and Friday. Sunday night we got a text that there was a track meet MONDAY. And the Wednesday and Friday meets were INVITATIONALS – which my son (a freshman) did not qualify for. Please, wonderful people who are sports coaches, out of the goodness of your hearts – COMMUNICATION IS KEY! Rant over.
Chicken Bacon orzo soup, bread machine bread
sloppy joes, veggie
Mexican Skillet(new recipe)
Chicken enchiladas, spanish rice
Baked Chicken Parmesan, broccoli
Sausage, hashbrown casserole (from the freezer)
The poor people in Nepal, so much destruction. Hopefully they find more survivors.
Here is my plan for this week…
sausage stuffed baby peppers
spaghetti and meatballs
grilled chicken caesar salad
pizza night
then prepping some food for an overnight hike this weekend!
I’ve just discovered this website (I’m always looking for new meal-planning ideas) and I’m excited to share my menu for the first time! My menu for my roomie and I for the coming week:
Tonight – homemade pizza (I’ve been using the lazy pizza dough/margherita pizza recipe on Smitten Kitchen every Friday for over a year now and it comes out perfectly every time! I had no luck with pizza until I tried this recipe.)
Saturday – roast chicken leg quarters, colcannon, buttered carrots, and homemade bread (Panama Bread from sourdoughhome.com – my go-to “plain” bread)
Sunday – simple pasta with Italian sausage and homemade tomato sauce, garlic toast w/ the Panama bread (mix butter, mashed garlic, fresh parmesan, and a little salt and spread on the bread), and salad
Monday – Brunswick stew in the crock pot (Great American Slow Cooker Book recipe) and Panama bread toast
Tuesday – flammkuchen (I use the Smitten Kitchen lazy pizza dough and top it with cream-thinned sour cream, mozzarella, red onion rings, plenty of freshly ground black pepper, and bacon), and fruit salad
Wednesday – jerk pork shoulder (another from the Great American Slow Cooker Book), black beans and rice, and roast sweet potatoes
Thursday – beef stew, creamed spinach, and buttered toast with the last of the Panama bread
Friday – homemade pizza (every Friday!)
Saturday – Home cookin’! Chicken-fried steak, cornbread, purplehull peas, turnip greens, and baked sweet potatoes.
so happy you found the site, amanda! I hope you’ll keep posting your great menus! love this!
