Wow! Things are starting to happen fast! It looks like we're closing on a new house in the next couple of weeks and I have a million things to do...and a million things to pack! Fortunately, the house is less than five miles from our current abode and I have lots of helpers. In the midst of all of the chaos and excitement that comes with a move it's nice to know I have my meals planned! Otherwise, we probably would be eating sandwiches or takeout every night. It's bad enough I've packed the dishes already so we're eating off of styrofoam plates and cups...on the floor. I got carried away and took apart the dining room table...whoops! So here's my plan....
Monday: Breakfast - yogurt, fruit and granola parfaits
Dinner - Meatball Monday! Meatball pizza ring (Check out my Chicken ranch ring and substitute meatballs, pizza sauce, cheese and black olives)
Tuesday: Breakfast - Grilled peanut butter, banana and bacon sandwiches
Dinner - Pineapple glazed ham steaks, hash brown casserole, green beans
Wednesday: Wacky Wednesday! - (Like our normal life isn't wacky enough)
Breakfast - Hotdogs, baked beans, chips
Dinner - French toast, bacon, scrambled eggs, fruit
Thursday: Breakfast - Breakfast nachos - Tortilla chips topped with scrambled eggs, crumbled sausage, sauteed onion and bell peppers, diced tomato and avocado, cheese and sour cream. Click the link for an "official"-type recipe...I'm just winging it.
Dinner - Baked tortellini and cheese (like mac and cheese only with cheese tortellini), garden salad
Friday: Breakfast - Blueberry Buckle
Dinner - Family Fun night! Pizza, Purple Cows
Saturday: Breakfast - Bagel bar - Bagel with a choice of toppings cream cheese in various flavors, jam, smoked salmon, strawberries, etc...
Dinner - Grilled turkey and cheese and creamy garlic potato soup
Sunday: Breakfast - Donuts and kolaches on the way to church
Dinner - Grilled Kabobs - beef, zucchini, grape tomatoes with a dijon marinade, broccoli cheese rice

Happy eating and have a great week!
Ooh, I love the idea of breakfast nachos... how fun! Will definitely be putting that on my "must try" list. And that tortellini dish? That would be RIGHT up my hubby's alley... sounds decadent!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the new house. I bet the kids love eating on the floor.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, I remember the moving days of paper plates and quick meals. :) Sounds like you're well prepared! Many of your meals sound like things my family would really like. (BTW, the link for the pizza ring gave me an error message.)
ReplyDeleteI'm cleaning out my freezer/pantry this week, so I have all tried and true favorites on my menu plan. Stop by and take a peek! :)
Thanks for pointing out my faulty link! I've fixed it...still learning!
