Meal Plan Monday

With the first being on a Friday, and my meal plans running to Sunday, this is the first official meal plan of 2010.

I am off of work this week so this plan is a little different than normal. We eat fresh and dried fruit for snacks. I am going to make a cake sometime this week for our sweet thing.

Monday
B - egg biscuits
L - leftover chicken casserole (2 stove tops, 1 cream of chick soup, 2 chicken breasts, 2 shredded carrots, 1/2 head of cauliflower) & broccoli salad
D - home made pizza (1 large tortilla topped with tomato paste, Italian seasoning, pepperoni and pizza cheese) & salad

Tuesday
B - bacon biscuits
L - chicken chili (2 cans of northern beans, 1/2 can of green chilis, 1 chicken breast - plus whatever seasoning it needs) & steamed cauliflower
D - Leftover chicken casserole (freeze the rest) broccoli salad

Wednesday
b - egg biscuits (the batch on Monday makes 6)
L - tuna salad sandwiches & broccoli salad (use brown and serve rolls)
D - Sliders & fries (use brown and serve rolls, freeze the rest)

Thursday
B - apple oatmeal
L - Chicken nuggets (homemade) & cooked carrots
D - Bean burritos (canned pintos, salsa, onions & cheese)

Friday
B - Cheerios and bananas
L - Chicken Broccoli Alfredo
D - Ravioli & Salad

Saturday
B - Blueberry Waffles
L - Chicken Broccoli Alfredo leftovers
D - Pizza and salad (ground beef and onion this time)

Sunday
B - Cheese Omelets
L - Beenie Weenies
D - Tuna Noodle pasta salad (or any leftovers I have floating around)

Shopping List
Milk
Apple Juice (if a good price)
Eggs (if a good price)
ground beef (1-2 pounds)
bananas
lettuce
carrots
whatever fresh fruit that is on sale

This meal plan should use up all the fresh veggies, fruit and bread in the house. It should also use 14 things from the pantry. YAY!

Keep cruising!

I planned my daycare meals for an entire week a couple weeks ago and it fed us for two whole weeks! It certainly saves money to plan meals ahead, doesn't it? Not to mention the convenience, too.
