Sunday- leftover meatloaf (recipe below)

Monday- grilled cheese and tomato soup because we're #adults.

Tuesday- slow cooker pulled pork sandwiches

Wednesday- My ILs are coming for lunch so I'm making broccoli and cheddar soup. We'll probably have chicken salad sandwiches for dinner. First time I'm making this soup so cross your fingers for me!! My soup won't be a nice orange though since they only had a high quality white sharp cheddar (I've actually only ever seen medium cheddar as orange...)

Thursday- pasta with Alfredo sauce (from a jar because #lazy) and sweet Italian sausages

Friday- sundried tomato chicken sausages on hotdog buns, because #klassy


Favorite meal last week was best ever meatloaf! One of our favorites. It really is the best ever.

kayladawn91, can you share the recipes for the Buffalo Chicken Casserole and the Shredded Pork? Those sound delicious!

[pinkcat]

rablissful Grilled cheese makes my meal plan quite frequently as well. We are all such #grownups But it's so good, how can we resist?!

I always say I'll get fancy ingredients for grown up grilled cheese.... But screw that. Simple American grilled cheese dipped in tomato soup is good enough for me!

Monday: fish (salmon and haddock) roasted with a maple seasonning blend, Green beans and boiled new potatoes
Tuesday: pizza night, since we all have chiropractor appointments after work
Wednesday: roasted peppers, onions and apple pork sausages. Probably some sort of bread with it.
Thursday: breakfast for dinner. Eggs, bacon, toast, cheese, cucumber.

Thanks! It really was great! I added in just a little bit of feta at the end and OMG so good. I'm full from dinner but still ready to eat a second bowl...Lol.

Sunday: We had Maple Dijon Crockpot Chicken Drummies with rice and steamed green beans.

Monday: Spaghetti

Tuesday: Leftovers (because I have a late afternoon hair appt and ain't nobody got time for cooking dinner)

Wednesday: Soup from the freezer, specifically Chicken Enchilada Soup. Which was amazeballs the first time around so I'm excited for this.

Thursday: Pork chops with apples and stuffing (one of my H's fave meals)

Friday: Broccoli Cheese Soup

My fave meal from last week was a toss up between the roast we did in the crockpot and this chicken tortilla bake. Our oven randomly quit working, so meal planning was tough this week. H is calling someone tomorrow. Literally every appliance in our house has been worked on now since we moved in 4 years ago. A week ago Friday the furnace quit. :/

I made sloppy joes last week, which my husband loves since he eats like a 5yr old

Do you have the recipe for the slow cooker lemon feta chicken? Anything with lemon and feta is my favorite

[spicysalmonroll]

M- steak, white rice, and avocado fajitas
T- Taco pasta salad (amazing- see recipe below)
W- split breasts w/ brown sugar carrots
TR- homemade pizzas (H plain, mine with goat cheese & pesto)
F- pasta-roni with frozen shrimp mixed in
S- think we're going out with friends

Taco pasta-
brown 1 lb ground beef or turkey. Mix in taco seasoning & set aside to cool.
Boil one box rotini spirals pasta, drain and rinse with cold water until noodles are cold.
In extra large mixing bowl, combine pasta with about 2 cups Catalina salad dressing. You can start with less and add as desired, I use about half a bottle.
Add meat and stir together.
Top with olives, shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese mix.

We also added a layer of crushed doritos once and it was good but they got soggy quick so it's better to add that right before eating. This makes A LOT- we usually bring it to parties. If it's just you, there will be about 6 tupperwares of leftovers

[spicysalmonroll]

@sparky85, why cucumber with bacon & eggs? that seems so random lol
hurricanerek, totally pinned the spicy chicken pasta, never would have thought to combine marinara with alfredo!
ugaqueencity, yup going to need that lemon chicken recipe!
rablissful, I LOLed at your #lazy #klassy sounds exactly like me. When people talk about making sauces I'm like "you know that comes in a jar, right?"

[doodler]

Hey guys!

I have conferences a few nights this week so yesterday I made a bunch of stuff for burrito bowls/quesadillas and we will pick at it for a few days. I made:
Shredded chicken with salsa and taco seasoning
Jasmine rice
Sauteed onions, peppers, and mushrooms
Cuban style black beans
Roasted corn

On Wednesday DH is off for Veterans day so he is going to smoke ribs. I made roasted carrots and cheesy spaghetti squash to go with.

spicysalmonroll my family has always had sliced cucumbers, tomatoes and cheese with our bacon and eggs. I have no idea why it started, but it adds a veg serving to an otherwise fairly greasy plate of food.

[spicysalmonroll]

ugaqueencity, thanks yum!! It's hilarious to me that 90% of the comments are asking about changing it. Can I use breasts? Can I use thighs? Can I leave skin on? Can I cook on low rather than high? Like JC people follow the recipe or figure your own shit out! lol

[pismoduo]

Tonight: Steak tips with scalloped potatoes and a salad
Tuesday: Basil pesto tilapia with corn on the cob and a salad
Wednesday: Teriyaki pork loin with chinese chicken salad (kit from Costco)
Thursday: Chicken vindaloo with rice and peas
Friday: probably going out for sushi

[BabyStandish]

Sesame soy meatballs
Crock pot chicken parmesean

And then we survive on leftovers or make grilled cheeses.

[penguin129]

I made Spaghetti and Meat Sauce last night for dinner but only DD ate it. H's mom sent of Chicken Corn Chowder Soup last night and I was so happy because I wasn't up to Spaghetti.

Monday- leftovers
Tuesday- letovers
Wednesday- hopefully leftovers
Thursday- Crock Pot Chicken Caccitore
Friday- I'll have to shop and meal plan because we'll be out of food by then
