Menu: Jan. 10 through Jan. 16

I completely forgot to post the weekly menu. Sean is starting a new work schedule this week so our menu is a little unusual. I am sure once we get into the swing of the new schedule I can create a better menu.
I am only posting our main meals for this week because I am not completely sure what the other two meals will be. I am also not posting sides...we like to pick our sides depending on our mood.

Sunday: KFC
Monday: Chicken Teriyaki and Broccoli
Tuesday: Honey Garlic Chicken
Wednesday: Pot Roast
Thursday: Tuna Noodle
Friday: Red Beans and Rice Deluxe
Saturday: Veggie Burgers

Last weeks meals were really yummy. The only thing we didn't eat was the portobella cap pizza. The Veggie Quiche was the BEST! Sean thought I was crazy when I was making and was very prepared to go out and pick up some fast food but he was pleasantly surprised at how great it tasted. I must say it was even better leftover the next day.

I am still working on the best way to do our menu planning so if you have any advice please let me know!

Menu: Jan. 3 through Jan. 9

Well this is my first attempt at creating a real, healthy menu. I have already purchased all of the ingredients I need for this week. I am trying some new recipes and some that I have already made a time or two. One of my challenges is to add at least one meatless meal to our menu each week.
So here goes....

Sunday: Buffalo Wild Wings....Last Football Game of the season! (Lunch) and Vegetable Quiche with a Spinach salad and corn(Dinner).

Monday: Scrambled Eggs with spinach and cheese (Breakfast), leftover Quiche (Lunch) and Baked Chicken with rice and salad (Dinner).

Tuesday: Frosted Flakes with banana (breakfast), salad with turkey or tuna (Lunch) and Old Fashioned Pot Pie with salad and green beans.

Wednesday: Half of a bagel with cream cheese (Breakfast), leftover Pot Pie (Lunch) and Cowboy Steaks with Green Beans and Salad (Dinner).

Thursday: Corn Flakes (Breakfast), Half of a turkey sandwich with cheese and mustard and broccoli (Lunch) and Leftovers or KFC (Dinner).

Friday: Half of a bagel with cream cheese(Breakfast), Salad with Tuna, Carrots and Turkey (Lunch) and Out to Eat(Dinner). Today is DH's birthday so we are going to dinner and a movie.

Saturday: Scrambled Eggs with Toast (Breakfast), Subway (Lunch), Portobello Pizza with corn and green beans (Dinner).

This is the plan for this week. I will keep you up to date on my success of following it each night. If you want to try out any of these recipes let me know...I can post the recipes if you would like. Many of them I found online but don't remember where for some of them.
Overall I think that this plan looks pretty healthy so I hope that we can stick to it and I hope that some of the new recipes are yummy!
