Weekly Menu Plan 2/21- 3/2

Okay we are back! We went to Phoenix for the Weekend so my husband could renew a certification, we got to see a few old friends and catch up with my husbands brother and family. We also got to eat at some of our favorite restaurants. Places you must try if you are in the phoenix area. We ate at restaurants in Peoria, Tempe, Mesa, and Gilbert, some are a chain or Franchise and others are locally owned. I plan on doing a post on each of them this next week.

So here is our menu plan for the week

On Tuesday 2/1: we had a super simple stir fry to simple for a recipe. Cooked chicken on the stove and let simmer in sweet and sour sauce. Cooked a bag of frozen stir fry veggies and combines with sauce and chicken and served over brown rice. Simple, easy and yummy too.

Menu Change...

This is not unusual at our house, but we had a menu change that effects to nights at our house.

Last night Mom was busily crafting and had to switch to our great standby food, tuna casserole only it was chicken casserole instead this time :) We had enough left over between that and the BBQ Chicken that we are having a leftover night tonight. So we will pick up with are steak sandwiches on Sunday night and this weeks menu will carry on until Thursday. I will pick up with the next menu plan on Thursday night instead of Tuesday next week.

Weekly Menu Plan 1/26 - 2/1

Well we are having a little bit of a switch up we ended up having a left over night tonight, so we are pushing our BBQ Chicken dinner back to tomorrow night. This week is full of first time meals for us. This is fun for me, I love to try new things, scary for my family that is not always so open to trying new things.

Wednesday 1/26- BBQ Chicken Sandwiches, oven baked fries and mixed vegetables, new recipe from Smashed Peas and Carrots
Thursday 1/27- Philly Steak Sandwiches with boiled carrots
Friday 1/28- Apple Cranberry French Toast, a new recipe from $5 dinners
Saturday 1/29- Eating out

I'm repenting...

Okay so I've been a total blog slacker all around, my personal blog, craft blog and food blog, so I am repenting. I am going to start posting our family's weekly meal plan; our plan won't follow the traditional week, it will go from Wednesday to Tuesday, because Wednesday is my shopping day. I will post the weekly meal plan on Wednesday and then I will post the recipes the night before we will actually be eating them . I hope you enjoy some of our family favorites and maybe can find something new that your kiddos will enjoy. I do like to try new recipes a lot, so if it is one we haven't had before I will let you know when I post the recipe and I will come back and update my post after I have blogged to give the families opinion. Everyone's opinion the health nut, the picky eaters (warning they very seldom like the same thing, they have very different tastes), and myself the pretty easy to please.


Alright its out there now, my promise to be a better food blogger, that means I cannot take it back.

Happy Eating!
