Menu Plan Monday, September 10

SUNDAY: After serving a big brunch to the Boy Scout leaders, it was take-out pizza for dinner

MONDAY: Spicy Orange Chicken using the "lazy" method described at bottom; rice and broccoli

TUESDAY: We need a meal that can keep hot in the slow cooker for a little while since we're never sure what time Brig Brother will be home after a cross-country meet. This one works: Chicken paprikas, noodles

WEDNESDAY: Beef enchiladas, corn muffins, salad. This is a great way to use up leftover pot roast or roast beef--pour some canned enchilada sauce into a casserole dish, mix some sauce with shredded cooked beef, chopped onions and cheese, roll up enchiladas, and top with more sauce and cheese. Cover and bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

THURSDAY: Roast chicken, potatoes, green beans

FRIDAY: Cheese ravioli with marinara sauce

SATURDAY: Pork ribs on the grill, macaroni salad

Menu Plan Monday, September 3

One week ago today, this is what I was looking at:


But now it's back to reality!!

SUNDAY: Picnic with friends. We brought the Dr. Pepper Baked Beans and a batch of brownies (made by Middle Sister--she's got the magic touch when it comes to brownies)

MONDAY: Pork spareribs on the grill, macaroni salad, raw vegetable platter

TUESDAY: Turkey drumsticks for the kids, chicken chili blanco for grownups (this is already made and in the freezer, so I just need to defrost and heat it)

WEDNESDAY: Spaghetti and meatballs

THURSDAY: Barbecue chicken pizza (I saw a recipe for this someplace. Tore it out of a magazine, I think. If I can't find it, I'm sure I can improvise easily.)

FRIDAY: Tilapia

SATURDAY: London broil on the grill

Menu Plan for the Month of September 2007

This month I decided to do my plan a little differently.

I sat down with my freezer inventory list and made a list of 30 dinners that can be made with meat already on hand. That would pretty much clean out my freezer but I buy meat when it's at a good price, so I'm always restocking a bit at a time.

As I go through the month I will pick a week's worth at a time from the list I made.

So here is my list for September:
3 after-school track meets need quick, easy meals: Taco Skillet, Chili or Hot Dogs, Quick Chicken Divan (Family Corner)

Spaghetti once a week (4 nights)

Meatless on Fridays: *Tilapia, *Ravioli marinara, Pierogi, Shrimp marinara

Regular dinners:
*Turkey drumsticks for the kids, chicken chili blanco for grownups
*Pot roast enchiladas
*Pork ribs
Roast chicken
Teriyaki pork
*Barbecue chicken pizza
*Chicken paprika
Empanadas
Swiss chicken melt
*Hot dogs
Cashew chicken
*Sausage & pepper sandwiches
*Spicy orange chicken
Roast pork & vegetables
*London broil
*Chicken noodle soup
Pork chops
Chicken piccata
*Eat out once
