Meal Plan Monday - 9/17/12

Last week we followed our meal plan really well, with the exception of Thursday night. I have been extremely busy at work and by Thursday, I was definitely not in the mood to come home and cook. Sometimes I look at the kitchen and want to run the other way. Thursday was one of those days! 

Monday - Tuna Noodle Casserole (I actually make this the night before so all I need to do is heat it up)

Tuesday - Crock pot BBQ chicken sandwiches

Wednesday - Left overs

Thursday - Breakfast for Dinner

Friday - Grandma's choice 

As much as I try to plan weekend meals, something always comes up. So I'm leaving it to just week nights! 

Meal Plan Monday

We are a busy bunch around here and I find meal planning a tough thing to do. My intentions are good, but sometimes, life gets in the way, ya know? The other obstacle I face is that Chris is not home for dinner 2 nights a week & Justin is a finicky eater. I figure, if I commit myself to posting a meal plan (almost) every Monday, then I'm at least committed to making one!

Monday - Beef tacos with refried beans

Tuesday - Turkey dogs with sweet potato tater tots

Wednesday - Baked Ziti

Thursday - Grilled Chicken

Friday - Pizza

Saturday - Eat out

Sunday - Spaghetti, meatballs, salad

Weekend Recap

We started off our weekend enjoying a peaceful dinner at Outback Steakhouse. Well a peaceful as one can be with a super-active almost-two year old.

J had chicken fingers and crayons. (He's already quite the gourmet.)

I had the Outback special (sorry, I took a bite then realized I wanted to take a picture)

Saturday we got up and went to the outlet mall in Ellenton. I usually hit up the Osh Kosh & Carter's stores to pick up clothes for J. But Carter's has remodeled their store and I don't like it. There doesn't seem to be as much to choose from in the store.

Sunday is usually chore day. Laundry, cleaning, you know, fun stuff.

Thank you for sharing your weekend with me. My blog is a work in progress and any tips or constructive criticism would be appreciated :)
