Weekly meal plan?

[stephanielouise]

Trying to get my routine down again! Anyone else interested in a check in??

[LaBellaVida]

Yes! I most certainly am. I'm tired of the same stuff.

I think it would be cool to have a sticky thread for our favorite recipes too.

[raven]

Yes! I would be inspired by what you all are making. Love the recipe sharing idea too!

[mmheartspb]

Yes

[Jellypepper]

Yes! I will totally get in on this. I haven't done a meal plan since LO arrived and my grocery budget had blown up. Time to get back on it!

[rodiesmum]

Yep we should have. Im sure most of the ladies' freezer meal stash is just about zero by now

[Deleted]

I should probably get on this too....we have been ordering out too much.

[ashlantic]

Would love this! DH and I talked about meal planning before lo was born and never got around to trying it.

[nachomomma]

My in-laws are coming this week, but I'll definitely join once they leave.

Monday: Chicken quesadillas

That's about all I got for now.

[shannjohnston]

Saturday - chicken pot pie
Sunday - pizza
Monday - chicken fajitas
Tuesday - lasagna
Wednesday - roast chicken/potatoes/carrots
Thursday - cream of broccoli soup
Friday - "freezer meat" (breaded fish fillet for me, chicken fingers for DS and wings for DH)/fries/salad

I have to plan ahead because grocery shopping with two kids is haaaaard. I also have to make a lot of things from scratch because DH is allergic to gluten which makes cooking a challenge and shopping for alternatives expensive.

[tomorrowisanotherday]

I always meal plan based on coupons before I go to the store. I have to make a detailed list and stick to it or my DH tends to overspend on frivolous stuff. Now that I stay at home and shop alone we are spending less! LoL
Turkey Chili
Chicken Pot Pie
Homemade Pizza
Italian Roll ups
Breaded Pork Chops with Roasted Potatoes and Corn on the Cob
We also have a leftovers night and an eat out night, so that's my week!

[stephanielouise]

Chicken cordon bleu
Mushroom and Swiss burgers with fries
Baked pork chops with apples and stuffing
Chicken pot pie
Ham and cheese sliders
Parmesan chicken manicotti
Sausage, asparagus and perogies skillet

[raven]

Monday - Parmesan crusted chicken, twice baked potatoes, broccoli
Tuesday - Spaghetti with ragu (beef and chicken sausage)
Wednesday - Shepherds pie (DH hates pot pie, wah!)
Thursday - lasagna
Friday - leftovers
Saturday - farfalle with shrimp and zucchini in cream sauce.
Sunday - TBD

We are going out to dinner with friends this weekend, but haven't solidified which day. I'm still planning on a meal, just in case.

My contributions to this would be very boring because DH and I are doing this thing where we eat salad with various proteins and veggies on it each night.

My friend is coming to visit tomorrow and bringing dinner, and we might go to brunch Sunday (Bloody Mary!), so that's the extent of my meal excitement. But it does make cooking easier.

[nemomof2]

I need to start meal planning. For one I am going to be a SAHM and would make life easier with 2 kids and DS has milk and soy intolerance so need to work around that since I am BF and it's about what I eat and I'm not making 2 different meals.

ETA because spelling is hard

[hazelnut]

Yes on the recipe sharing! I'm getting tired of my recipes.
