March 6th - 12th
Here's attempt 1 at my weekly meal plan! I'm going to try to do this post weekly and on Saturdays (yet another task to be completed during Landon's nap or meal times). It was SO much fun to hunt down these recipes so hopefully I'll be able to stick to it!
Sunday: Chicken and Herb Dumplings
Monday: Stuffed Peppers
Tuesday: Aloha Pork Chops
Wednesday: Arroz Con Pollo
Thursday: Cheesy Meatloaf
Friday: Chicken Fiesta Salad
Saturday: Crockpot Beef Stroganoff
Now for the grocery list! I've taken the main ingredients from all the recipes to make sure I have everything I'm going to need so there's no last minute trips to the store! I've excluded spices and things like milk, flour, etc. because generally I'll already have all that. For my personal reference, I've bolded the things I'll actually need to go buy (not too much eh?) ;)
Shopping List:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 chicken thighs
Carrots
Celery
Frozen whole kernel corn
Chicken Broth

2 lb ground beef

2 pork chops
Sweet & sour sauce
1 cup pineapple chunks
1 Red onion
Stir fry sauce
Velveeta
Fajita seasoning packet
Black beans
Salsa
Lettuce
Tomato
Cubed stew meat
Cream of mushroom soup
8 oz can of mushrooms
Mushroom gravy packet
There you have it! Our menu for the week! I'm so excited about it and I hope Adam and Landon enjoy it all!
Mmmmm, sounds yummy! One suggestion (since I did these weekly meal plans for a little while) - give yourself at least 1 day of "take out" or "every man (except Landon, lol) for himself" especially if you don't normally cook everyday. GL sticking to the plan, let me know how the recipes taste!
