I have completely failed at my menu plans for 2 weeks! As a result, we have eaten out more times than we should have. Honestly, it makes a huge difference if I plan what we will be having. First, I take a look at what we have in the fridge that has to be eaten up, then I move to the freezer and finally to the pantry for what just plain sounds good. I also take into account what is on sale at the store that I know I will have a chance to pick up. I don’t plan for lunches or breakfast anymore. I pack all the kids lunch and breakfast lately is cold cereal or bagels with cream cheese. Easy.
Monday:
Hamburgers, chips and fruit salad.
Tuesday:
Frozen lasagna, French Bread and Salad (thanks to frozen food month this month I have a few of these!)
Wednesday:
Chili, Salad and French Bread, seen HERE
Thursday:
Slider Sandwiches, we have games all night so I have to be able to take them with us! Chips and fruit also.
Friday:
Pizza, I think this week we will try a taco pizza for Paul and I and pepperoni for the kids.
What are your plans for dinner this week?
Part comedian, part Dad, part athlete. He will boss around your children while they play ball.
Just as angelic as she looks, this girl could easily raise a Village by herself, and all the children would grow up to be President.
Self proclaimed, she would be a webkinz dog. Because, "they're cute, and puppies are too. And they're sweet and they always get along with other puppies."

The resident Labradoodle, Miller got his name because Mom won and got to name the baby! Need something chewed up? He'll take care of it. Especially if it's expensive..
I tried the recipe you had a while back for Broiled Parmesan Tilapia last week. One of my kids was so disappointed that it was not chicken nuggets so he would not even touch it. After about twenty minutes he realized he had better try it, and he loved it with a little Lemon Seasoning made by Weber.

I was going to make black bean soup for supper tonight, but instead of soaking the beans this morning, we made an impromptu trip to the zoo because the weather was so nice! We wound up having a kind of icky improvised tofu pad thai for supper instead, but it was worth it for the memories of baby's first zoo trip. You can see how excited he is. 😉
