3-Week Meal Plan

DD helped me inventory the freezer this weekend, and as I thought, we have more than enough food for meals to carry us through the rest of this month. Here is what I have planned:

Mondays
Cinnamon chicken
Chicken tortilla soup
Chicken-broccoli rollups

Tuesdays
Beef wellington
Tacos
Flaky beef pie

Wednesdays
Italian beef stew
Chicken teriyaki
Spaghetti pie

Thursdays
Leftovers

Fridays
Pork chops paprikash
Asian pork chops
Beef fettuccini

Saturdays
Potato-leek soup
Chicken cacciatore
Birthday dinner out

Sundays
Pizza with Papa

I do need to make a list of lunches to just keep on hand. I did that during Christmas break, and having a plan really relieved a lot of stress while I was working. (Amazing, huh! ;-) ) I've had a mental list before, but having it written out and on my day planner right in front of me seemed to make the difference.

It's a recipe from the $5 Dinner Mom's cookbook. It used to be on her website, but has disappeared since her book came out. I haven't made it yet (next week, I'm thinking), but it looks very easy. Uses the crock pot. I'll post more after I make it.

Your menu is making me hungry! Been browsing your blog. I love that Dave Ramsey is at the top of your favorite links. I have met him in person and he is such a genuine man of God. He sincerely loves helping people and seeing them succeed!

Off now to fix a snack. Let us know about the cinnamon chicken dish.
