Menu Plan Monday - December 27, 2010


I always see this on the blogs I follow.  It is definitely something I want to start doing on a weekly basis to keep myself planned and organized as well as sharing some great recipes. 
Meal Plan Monday originates at I'm an Organizing Junkie.  Check it out for other great meal plan ideas.

It is already Monday evening.  Chris and I drove home today from my parents' to find this in our neighborhood -
Luckily my mom sent us home with leftovers from last night which will be tonight's dinner.  We are hoping to venture to the grocery store tomorrow for the rest of the meals for the week.  Madison stayed with my parents for the week so it is just Chris and I for the week.

Monday - Leftovers: grilled jerk pork tenderloin, macaroni and cheese, and cheesey green bean casserole.
Tuesday - Pork BBQ sandwiches * with cole slaw and chips
Wednesday - Go out to eat using a Groupon we have
Thursday - Taco Soup and Sweet Skillet Cornbread from the Passys & Parties blog
Friday - New Years Eve dinner out at one of our favorite restaurants - not sure where just yet
Saturday - Breakfast for Dinner - pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon
Sunday - steaks on the grill, Pioneer Woman's Spicy Lemon Garlic Shrimp, baked potatoes, and corn on the cob

* My parents sent us home with a pork tenderloin that I am going to use to make the pork bbq if we can get to the grocery store early enough to get the ingredients I need

Oh gosh...me too. I am trying to be better for 2011. We eat out way too much.

I thought the shrimp looked great and I have all of the ingredients already so it was an easy addition.

The Taco Soup sounds GREAT! I'll have to add it to my weekly meal plan one of these days! Thanks for the idea!
