  {Menu Plan Monday: Dec.29}



Last menu for this year!!! YAY! :)
I did the menu a little different this week. I didn't plan specific breakfasts for each day, I just got a few things that I could make over and over to make it easier!

Breakfasts:
biscuits with egg and sausage
everything bagels with cream cheese
English muffins with poached eggs and bacon
cereal and fruit
oatmeal with sauteed apples and brown sugar

Dinners:
Monday
- Crock pot Pot Roast with root veggies and sweet potatoes (save half the roast for later in the week)
Tuesday - chicken pot pie**
Wednesday - BBQ with my sister and BIL for New Years!
Thursday - Mexican skillet with cream cheese added served with crock pot pinto beans**
Friday - TX Cowboy pie made with leftover pot roast
Saturday - chicken noodle soup**
Sunday - Chicken Alfredo pizza with broccoli and mozzarella (made with morning star "chicken" strips)
Monday - crock pot potato chowder with buttery bread machine rolls

**The Mexican skillet, chicken pot pie, and chicken noodle soup are all made from ONE chicken! Click here to see the recipes: http://www.5dollardinners.com/2008/12/frugal-food-for-large-families.html)

I love these posts Nikki! At 3am I started here and hopped around into blogland and found some wonderful resources. Off to the grocery store with my new list in tow. ;)

I always sort of do my meal lists backwards.

I shop and buy what's on sale, looks ripe, looks yummy, etc.

Then when I get home I make a list of all the possible meals with the groceries.

Then during the week, I just go to my list of possible meals and decide what looks best that day.

Happy New Year pretty Nikki!!!
