Menu Plan Monday: The Late Edition

October 26, 2009

I had to work today, I’ve been trying to catch up with the odds-and-ends at home, and I think I’m getting sick again. So, this week’s menu plan will be pretty low-maintenance for me.

Monday
We had leftovers!

Tuesday
Broiled Tilapia Parmesan (recipe HERE)
Crock Pot Baked Potatoes (recipe HERE)
Canned Veggies

I will also be using my second Crock Pot to cook some chicken breasts on Tuesday. I will dice, bag, and freeze these for later meals.

Wednesday
Chicken Spanish Rice
To make this, I make a Zatarain’s Spanish Rice mix according to the directions on the box. Then I add in a can of black beans (drained, rinsed) and some diced chicken. Sometimes we sprinkle a little bit of shredded cheddar on top too. Yummy!

Thursday
Leftovers!

Friday
Homemade Pizza

Saturday
Hubby & I are headed to the Ohio State football game!! Yay!! No cooking and a great day of Buckeyes football with my husband… what more could I ask for!?!?

Sunday
Soup & Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
