Menu plan Monday for a week of madness



I am not sure how we have become so crazy busy. I am not an activites kind of Mom. I do not enjoy running around from place to place-I embrace this about myself. We have learned this year that with 5 kids we will be limiting the activities that we choose to commit to. So far we are doing basketball with all 5 kids, piano for 3 girls, reading partners for 4 kids, chess club for Michael, Peris is in circus and the school play, and we participate in Wednesday night church-I feel like I am leaving something out. Thank goodness we haven't been sucked into PCSL or an organized sports league where we endure weekend practices and games!!! This week I am teaching two nights and Derek is gone teaching one night as well so our meals are pretty routine again. I am falling back into a rut and would love some new suggestions!!!!!

Monday: Chicken nuggets and a veggie

Tuesday: Sandwich night

Wednesday: Chicken patties, cheesy potatos

Thursday: Baked cheese ziti, french bread, salad (can you tell this isn't a busy night?)

Friday: Burgers and fries

Saturday: Taco bar

Sunday: Chicken pot pie (didn't get this made last week)

If you have ANY easy, good recipes to share I am in need of some new meals to add to the rotation!!!! Check out www.orgjunkie.com for more menu plans and ideas.

Hi:
I'm always on the hunt for quick, healthy, tasty recipes! I've found a few favorite cookbooks and websites; you can check them out on my blog. I have links to a bunch of my favorite recipes and I've typed in a few others, so I'd love to have you over! :)

It's like inviting someone to tea, only virtual. :)

Thanks for the comment on my blog! I love yours. You have such a pretty layout. I've been hearing a lot about Unisom right now. I think I'll mention it to my doctor tomorrow. Thanks!
