Menu Plan Monday

My friend, Elizabeth, posts her menu for the week each Monday on her blog. I have to admit that I steal a lot of her ideas for our meals. I have found her posts so helpful when it comes to planning my week, that I have decided to share as well. If you are like me, sitting down to plan a week's worth of dinners can be a daunting task. Hopefully, this will help give you ideas for your own families.

I know that I am already a day late with this post. I usually do our menu planning and shopping for the week on Tuesdays, but I will try to have the menu posted every Monday. My goal is to also provide recipes or links to recipes. This is my first week, so I only have two links to recipes. I will try to be better in the future.

Monday: Soup and Sandwiches (Nick had to work late)

Tuesday: Paprika and Parmesan Chicken with asparagus and pasta

Wednesday: Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin with mashed potatoes and broccoli

Thursday: Bird's Eye Steam Fresh meal and spinach salad

Friday: Spicy Pork Stir-fry with brown rice

Saturday: Chicken Tacos with Mexican Rice

Sunday: Breakfast for dinner - Mushroom, tomato, and cheese omelets with sausage

Yummy! Can I come over for dinner?

Finding the recipes is the hardest part - once you've got them, it's just shopping and cooking - no having to think at 5pm, which is when my brain goes to mush anyhow!
