[westcoastfldisneygirl]

Went grocery shopping today yay! My slow cooker will be getting some use this week.

Tomorrow: Slow cooker Meatloaf with potatoes and carrots from Food Network Magazine
Tuesday: The use the leftovers from ^^^" from the magazine and doing meatloaf quesadillas. Side TBD if there aren't leftover potatoes and carrots. (frozen veggie sides come in handy for this!)
Wednesday: Baked ziti (from the freezer), Caesar salad
Thursday: I have my workout class. Leftovers/soup. FFY basically.
Friday: I got a gift card for Brinker restaurant for my birthday. So not "eating at home" but we won't have to spend any money going to use it at Chili's.
Saturday: Slow cooker Italian chicken and peppers over penne pasta (I have a lot of it since penne was on the clearance end cap at target last week and I picked up 10 boxes at .55 each! only shape on the clearance rack) I will freeze half of the chicken and peppers

Switching things up. It's cold and rainy so I am heating up some soup instead of making the stuffed acorn squash. May also make grilled cheese, but have to see if I have bread or not. If not, then just crackers.

Both my parents and DH's parents own condos down there now. Who's gonna argue with heading to the beach for Thanksgiving??? So, our menu this week is short...

Saturday:
Chili
GF Cornbread

Sunday:
Teriyaki Chicken and Rice with Broccoli added (http://www.whilehewasnapping.com/2011/03/20-minute-teriyaki-chicken-rice/)

Monday:
Chili and Cheese Baked Potatoes (using leftover Chili)

Tuesday:
Any leftovers lingering in the fridge and sandwiches

And to all of you:

If you like sloppy joes, try the Pioneer Woman' recipe for a change. It is the best! They have become one of my favorite meals!

Trying to come up with a menu for this week.
Last week was:
Sat-chili, French bread
Sun-turkey, mashed potatoes, salad, rolls, corn
Mon-Tacos, rice, cornbread
Tues-Spaghetti, homemade breadsticks
Wed-Burgers, fries
Thurs-Went out for pizza with DH parents (saw Santa too while there!)
Fri-homemade mac and cheese, fish, and broccoli

A really good week for us eating at home! Usually I cave at least one night! My struggle is trying to come up with a menu my kids will eat! They're allowed one free pass from dinner where they can eat hot dog or waffles, which is their favs. I have one who hates pasta of any kind and another who isn't a big meat eater! Two opposites makes for hard planning!

Sorry I forgot to link it! Here is is http://www.budgetbytes.com/2015/11/slow-cooker-italian-chicken-and-peppers/

It's in the slow cooker right now and it smells AMAZING.

 

[westcoastfldisneygirl]

Meal Plan for next week:

-Monday: Chicken breast marinated with roasted red pepper Italian dressing, broccoli
-Tuesday: I have my late night at work. I will be bringing leftovers to work and H will have leftovers at home.
-Wednesday: Cheese and black bean quesadillas, chips and salsa
-Thursday: We are alone for thanksgiving this year. We aren't in the mood this year for "traditional" thanksgiving food. So we are grilling sirloin steaks and having gnocchi with alfredo sauce and salad. Deciding on a dessert. Maybe a Peanut Butter pie, like this:
http://allrecipes.com/recipe/12181/no-bake-peanut-butter-pie/
-Friday: Leftovers minus the steak as neither one of us like reheated steak.
-Saturday: Homemade pizza
-Sunday: Baked buffalo chicken with alexa waffle fries
