Menu Plan Monday – Feb 13 – 19

Now that I’ve added taking going back to school to everything else we have going on, it has become even more essential to have a menu plan and have it ready so that we can do our grocery shopping after church. Otherwise, all hell will break loose come Monday night.

The trick has been having time to blog it. I’m taking a break from said schoolwork to watch Adele on the Grammy’s and type up my menu plan for this week.

Monday – Crockpot Chicken & Dumplings
Tuesday – Spinach Baked Ziti
Wednesday – Chili
Thursday – Taco Pie
Friday – Easy Ranch Chicken

By the time the weekend comes, I’ll probably not have made one of the meals above and can use it or we’ll have enough leftovers that we can do that.

Are you the visual type? Check out my menu plan board on Pinterest.

Do you have a special meal planned for Valentine’s Day or will you be going out on the town with your sweetie?

Menu Plan Monday – January 23 – 29

Menu Plan Monday

Time to start another week!! Last week we made some changes to the lineup because Keith had a couple of late nights at work so Brooke and I threw together some quick dinners. I also didn’t have a chance to get my beans cooked up. So I’m carrying over a couple of the meals from last week’s plan to this week. I love it when I can do that!!

Black Bean & Cheese Enchiladas
Black Bean Burgers
Taco Pasta
Chili
Homemade Pizza
Alfredo Pasta with Sausage
Free Night!!

I’m considering starting a series called “Weekend Warrior” that will discuss things you can do over the weekend that can save you time during the week. I would love to have some guest contributors share their ideas as well. Tips can include anything from kitchen tips, laundry, housecleaning, organization, time management, finances & budgeting, and quality family time….If you’re interested in contributing (you don’t have to be a working mom or have a blog), please send me an email at sarah@tiredmommytales.com.

Menu Plan Monday – January 16-22

Menu Plan Monday

Another week, another meal plan! We did pretty well with our plan last week. We had an unexpected pizza night after Brooke’s daycare closed on us unexpectedly and I attempted to work at home with Brooke. Oy!! We really enjoyed the Taco Pie so Keith has requested that go in our regular meal rotation. I’ve actually started a board in Pinterest for those meals that are tried and true for our family. When I’m hitting a roadblock with our meal plan, I’ll look there to find something I know is a hit for everyone!

We’ve got a couple new recipes in the plan this week.

Down Home Macaroni & Cheese
Taco Pasta
Crockpot Chicken & Dumplings
Black Bean & Cheese Enchiladas
Slow Cooker Cheesy Italian Tortellini
Black Bean Burgers

Have a great week everyone!!
