Meal Plan- Week of 7/5

[txngrl31]

Hey y'all! I thought I would bring this thread back to life as we slowly get in the groove of having a baby at home. What are you planning to cook or order out this week?


My freezer meal stock is just about depleted so I'm back to cooking...need some ideas mamas!

4/5?? please dear god no, that means I have almost 3 mo of pregnancy left!!!


And, tonight we're having spaghetti and grilled italian sausage, no idea for tomorrow, and tues my Ils arrive to replace my parents who will be heading home. MIL will take over the cooking at that point.

Used up my last freezer meal last week, so we're back to business as usual round here. Although we're going out a couple times this week, because I still haven't gotten my birthday margarita and our local brewery is doing a Keep the Glass night with sours on Wednesday.

The other nights of the week look like this:
BLAT on cornbread (about to make the cornbread now)
Artichoke, spinach, and white bean casserole
Prosciutto, fig, and manchego sandwiches
Baked mozzarella

My husband made this earlier this week, and it was delicious!! Sorry, it's a link to Facebook. I can't copy and paste the text.

billyhorrible, I am jealous of your menu! I try to plan our meals around what most of the kiddos will eat so I can make the least amount of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches this week. And I can say the menu looks nothing like your delicious week!

DH and I had an unusually restful night, so he's been cooking most of the day - bacon and Brussels sprouts, steak fries, and we hard boiled our eggs for salad toppings. Later today well cook our burgers left over from the Fourth of July.

Tomorrow I have crockpot teriyaki pork chops to cook. I highly recommend this site for freezer meals: www.mommysfabulousfinds.com/tag/crock-pot

Tonight DH is in charge, I'm guessing leftovers from last nights BBQ.

Rest of the week, not necessarily in order:

Tacos
Homemade chicken fried rice and egg drop soup
Breakfast for dinner
Pasta fagiole
Baked Italian chicken and steamed broccoli

bendherova, hahaha ! Baby didn't let me sleep much last night so I'm chalking up the error to sleep deprivation/ mommy brain.

Tonight:BBQ hamburgers, homemade guacamole and grilled corn on the cob
I'm also making the pretzel jello salad that everyone spoke highly of. I'm excited!

Rest of the Week:
Tacos
Spaghetti with a side of Grilled Asparagus
Porcupine Balls with steamed veggies
Pizza Night

Yeah, LBB pretty much has an "eat what we eat or go hungry" rule here.  Although I try to work within it.  He loves bacon, avocado, and tomatoes, so BLATs are usually good, even though he pretty much just eats the bacon, avocado, and tomato and leaves everything else.  I don't know how he'll do with the casserole.  And we've convinced him that prosciutto is "just like bacon" so he likes that too and will probably just eat that and the bread.  Maybe the cheese.

Tonight: grilled steak, cous cous, asparagus
Rest of the week:
Burgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob, strawberry spinach salad
Spinach, garlic, and tomato pizza on boboli bread
Baked chicken, Brussels sprouts with walnuts, craisins and feta

That's all I've got so far. Maybe I'll find inspiration from you ladies!
ETA: deleted other post because it was a duplicate
