Menu Planning and Life

mushrooms

This week is a busy week.  I have a lot going on at work and in my life.  I have a bazaar at work, I am headed at the end of the week to a wedding in Dallas leaving my husband to do the running with the kids.  Plus my daughter is preforming in a play on Sunday.   I need to meal plan which I have not been doing any regularity lately causing me to be very disorganized.

My meal planing this week is all about easy because of how much I have to get done.  Easy for my self and my husband is super important.  also Tuesday night I have to make a pot of my  Split pea soup for the Bazaar.

I really also want to tell you about what else I have been up to.  I am still sewing and making superhero capes.   Check out BABYPOP (for your custom capes starting at $17 for custom letter, color, and logo they make great Christmas gifts.

Menu Planning Monday

2 Comments

mushroomsMenu Planning Monday This week I will being on a trip the kids overnight which means.. My husband has to fend for himself for 1 night.. he follows a gluten, dairy, red meat, night shade vegetable free diet.  As a family we had omitted red meat and some of the night shade because it makes life easier.  I will make my husband separate dishes but some times it is easier not to make more cooking for me.

So as a family this means we are eating healthier.  Our diet has more rice, veggies, sweat potatoes.  What we don’t eat much..white potatoes, red meat, peppers.

I do buy some night shades, red peppers, tomatoes, and finger potatoes because My daughter and I will eat them

Menu Plan

Monday : Fish, spinach, roasted cauliflower

Tuesday: Fend for yourself for my hubby

Wednesday: on the road dinner

Thursday: Orange Chicken GF  with fried rice

Friday: Pulled pork tacos

Have a great week!

2 Comments

mushroomsSo Last week with the nice  weather meal planning was not followed.  The reason I love meal planning is because it allows for flexibility.  So I was able to shift   things and come up with different options.   Which meant I had new options this week.

Quick Meal Planing

Monday- Baseball night  Grill cheese-  Kids standard white bread.  The Hubby and I Apples/brie/turkey/honey on rustic bread

Tuesday  My Split peas soup  that I wrote for 5mins for mom (bought ham cubes) left over rustic bread

Wednesday: Fish with asparagus and couscous (yea did not get made last week)

Thursday:  Italian Night starting with  Super Simple Fresh Mozzarella and Basil Bites Recipe From Sunday Supper and MeatBall Hogies

Friday : Swim Banquet So I am making a Salad I think I might try  Daphne Oz’s King of Greens Salad  (from The Chew) Since it is for many people I don’t have to expect the kids to eat  and I will not have to throw out a bunch of kale after being dressed.

Saturday I will be at Type A Advanced here is my own home town of Philly-  I love Blogging conferences.

Dont forget to check out my French Onion Bites post from last week.
