When your a parent a family has to eat. Gone are the days of a bowl of cereal or pizza every night. I do plan meals because it makes the busy nights easier. My recipes are a combination of recipes new and old as well as simple meals.
Last night we picked up a Rotisserie Chicken marked down for $3. Mashed potatoes were whipped up as well as a side of corn!

Spaghetti and meatballs. I gave some leftover frozen meatballs that I will be using and combine tomato sauce, paste and diced tomatoes for the spaghetti sauce with a side of garlic bread.

2/16 Friday
The kitchen is closed. Every man women and child for themselves. Leftovers are served.
What are you having for the rest of the week? Do you meal plan?
Nice, you have a planned meal for the 5 days! I do the same too, but I think yours is more healthier, you even have salmon :)
ReplyDeleteI tend to meal plan prep lunches for Monday-thursday on Sunday evenings. I make a protein bowl with chicken breast chopped, brown organic rice, black beans and a little salsa
ReplyDeleteI love that Fridays the kitchen is closed. I am still that adult eating whatever, whenever. But there aren't kids in the house so I don't feel too terrible.
ReplyDeleteMeal planning is so simple yet I find so many people don't do it! I do my best to set out my week, but a lot of the times I fall short.
ReplyDeleteLooks like quite the tasty menu! Good for you that you don't cook on Fridays, you need a day off for sure! Plus, leftovers are sometimes even better the second go-around!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a yummy week! I love that Friday is a more relaxed night for the family!

ReplyDeleteLooks like an awesome menu. Even I usually dont cook on Fridays...hubby cooks on Fridays :)
ReplyDeleteLeftovers are my FAVORITE meal to plan:) It is so much easier than planning a whole new meal.
ReplyDeleteThese all sound like great leftover meals. The Rotisserie Chicken is my favorite. I cannot believe it was marked down to $3.
ReplyDeleteWe don't really have a set meal plan but we do eat grilled chicken and veggies 5 nights out of the week
ReplyDeleteI love meal planning myself! Saves unnecessary trips to the supermarket. What do you normally have on the weekends?
