This Week’s Menu 07/27/09

Having just got back from BlogHer yesterday afternoon, I want the easiest meals I can make this week.Plus, my husband gets paid on Wednesday so for tonight and tomorrow it’s whatever I can find in the freezer and pantry.  Here’s what I’m planning:

Monday- Slow Cooker boneless skinless chicken breast with barbecue sauce, steamed broccoli [...]

Menu Monday- 4/20

For this week’s menu plan, I’m using mainly The Low G.I. Diet by Rick Gallop. If you are familiar with The Zone diet, or South Beach, or the new Weight Watchers Simply Filling Technique, that is what a low glycemic index diet is. Sticking mostly to foods that are low in sugar and fat [...]

Weekly Meal Plan

Well, I missed Menu Monday again. I am just so busy on Mondays with all the emails that come in over the weekend! And since my husband gets paid every other Wednesday, I’m not thinking about a new weekly meal plan until Wednesdays.  For this week, I’m using one of THE BEST ways to plan [...]

This Week’s Menu

I’ve decided that for now, I’m not going to be doing Menu Monday, because my husband gets paid on Wednesdays, so I plan our new menus to start then. It just makes more sense for me to plan from Wednesday to Tuesday!

For this week’s meals, I’m using some new recipes that I picked up [...]

Menu-Jan. 20-25

I missed Menu Monday yesterday, oops!  I’m only planning through Saturday of this week because I’ll be gone at a conference next week (just WAIT until I tell you where I’m going!) and I want my husband to help plan the meals since he will be cooking them.I’m also using my Taste of Home magazines [...]

Menu Monday with a review of Springpad

This week’s menu is known as “using up what I have”, also know as “shopping in my own cupboards”, also known as “why the heck didn’t we eat this stuff when I bought it the FIRST time?” To help me organize my meal planning this week, I’m using a new service called Springpad that I’d [...]

Menu Monday- week of Nov. 17

I’ve come down with some kind of virus, so I’m keeping our meals super-easy this week and taking advantage of cooking magazines-the Fall issue of Kraft Food & Family, and the Oct. Simple & Delicious.

Meal 1.- Slow Cooker Chili (food & family)- 1.5 lbs. lean ground beef, two 15 ounce cans dark red kidney [...]

Menu Monday September 1-5

My boys start school tomorrow, which means my weekly menus will now include a brown bag lunch meal. Kaitlyn and I will eat the same things as the boys, just at home. My lunches this week are coming mainly from the book “Brown Bag Success-Making Lunches Your Kids Won’t Trade”, by Sandra K. Nissenberg, MS, [...]

Menu Monday July 14, 2008

This week’s meals are easy ones since I am leaving for BlogHer on Thursday. I’m also making recipes with 6-8 servings for my increasingly more hungry boys, you can always halve them to fit your family. I included the Goulash recipe at the end of the post!

Monday: Creamy Chicken and Noodles, steamed carrots, [...]

Menu Monday-June 23 2008

You know what really helps? Knowing what your menu will be BEFORE 5:00 pm on Monday! I just seem to get less and less organized every week. It’s a good thing that Target sells frozen food now, because while I was there today buying toilet paper and Pull-Ups, I picked up tonight’s dinner. I [...]
