Menu Plan Monday 1/27




Monday- Omaha Steak and baked potatoes
Tuesday- Frozen Pizza or Soup
Wednesday- Pan Fried Dumplings with fried rice and egg rolls
Thursday- Beer Can Whole Chicken with herb rice
Friday- Pasta with vodka sauce
Saturday- Leftovers/Old El Paso Chicken tacos with saffron rice (also called yellow rice in our house)
Sunday- Leftovers/Homemade Pizza

I have a dental cleaning, teaching a couponing class (and maybe subbing) on Tuesday so I am not sure when I am going to be home and with how much energy so I counting on an easy meal of either frozen pizza or soup. The rest of the meal plan is using different meals around the house that should make for a tasty week.  I might be moving the chicken tacos around because we need cheese and lettuce but all other ingredients are in the house

Another month gone and I am looking to find what the meals are for Saturday and Sunday only to find out that they aren't on the calendar because it is already February!!!  What!!!

Time to print out next months calendar and start planning.  I am working on filling in the blanks on February to spread out the meals that we already have on hand.  I got a few dates written out and then I got busy and put the calendar away.  I pulled it back out and started again.  We have one of our "Christmas" Omaha steaks left so we are going to save that for Valentine's Day and I am going to work through the freezer and pantry and see if I can't add a few new recipes to the menu.

Do you normally cook the same thing every week or try to mix it up?  I find that I am often making the same meals over and over so I am trying a new recipe or something we haven't had in awhile once a week!  What meals does your family eat every week?
