Menu Plan Monday - January 18th



This is my third week of Menu Plan Monday, and again I just love it. If you haven't yet, you should totally try it out. Head on over to I'm An Organizing Junkie and see what all the planners are up to! You can seriously get some wonderful ideas! Last week, I made two lemon chicken (loved it), chicken garlic lettuce wraps (amazing!), and a white chicken chili (so easy my son could have made it!). One of the cool things is that I was able to take that one chicken and make three dinners for my husband, son and myself and two lunches for me (left over garlic chicken lettuce wraps), and lunch for my hubs and myself on Sunday (left over white chicken chili). The best part was that for most of the three meals, I already had everything I needed. I spent less than $10 on what I didn't have on hand.

Now on to this week!



MONDAY

Pot Roast
with carrots and mashed potatoes -- This will be a nice treat for my husband to come home to. I feel bad because he has to work tomorrow. :( Poor hubs.

TUESDAY

Beef Stroganoff (using left over pot roast) I am basing it on this recipe, but I am also adding fresh mushrooms, because my husband loves them. :)

WEDNESDAY

Alexander's Pick - This is the first meal my son, Alexander will pick and prepare (with my help). He is searching out the recipes tomorrow. I will be adding a link when he gives me his inspiration.

THURSDAY

Mahi Mahi Fish Tacos (using corn tortillas not flour)

FRIDAY

Spicy grilled chicken breasts with green leaf lettuce salad

SATURDAY

Ranch Beans and Franks

SUNDAY

Barbecue Chicken Pizza

Hi there! The stroganoff is somthing I haven't made for a long time. I'll have to get it on my next menu. I didn't post one this week because I'm visiting my parents until tomorrow. Thank you for leaving a note for me. Have a marvelous week!
