I decided it was time to get back to some more serious meal planning to keep from giving in to the temptation of take out on the more tired or busy nights. Here is my plan for the next two weeks:
Sunday 9/18 - church picnic - I am taking homemade salsa with chips, bread n butter pickles, watermelon, banana muffins, and maybe green tomato relish with crackers.
Monday 9/19 - Slow cooker round steak with California blend vegetable and applesauce
Tuesday 9/20 - Eggplant (either fried or as eggplant parmesan) with corn fritters
Wednesday 9/21 - Spaghetti (from the freezer)
Thursday 9/22 - leftovers or frozen pot pies
Friday 9/23 - Tacos (meat is already prepared & in the freezer)
Saturday 9/24 - We will be at band contests and so will eat in the hospitality room there.
Sunday 9/25 - We will be working our church's walking taco booth at a festival & will eat there.
Monday 9/26 - Meatless shepherd's pie, canned fruit
Tuesday 9/27 - Canned ravioli, fruit
Wednesday 9/28 - Hamburger Helper, green beans
Thursday 9/29 - Homemade cheese pizza, applesauce, green beans
Friday 9/30 - We will probably be at a football game and so supper will be a picnic of sandwiches and fruit.
Saturday 10/1 - Leftovers
Breakfasts will be cereal, waffles, yogurt, oats, muffins, or peanut butter toast.
Lunches will be sandwiches (turkey, balogna, peanut butter), supper leftovers, and a few school lunches.
Snacks will include cookies, muffins, pumpkin or zucchini bread, and blackberry/blueberry cobbler as well as crackers, popcorn, pretzels, fruit, cupcakes, and granola.
It's not the most inventive of meal plans, and not everything is from scratch; however, it is a plan that should be doable as we are in the midst of a busy season for our family with Jim's job as a band director.
