Menu Plan Monday - Finally

March 9th, 2009

February was a busy month for us… we had visitors, I did a lot of traveling. In general, there wasn’t any menu planning at all. It was more of a ‘eat whatever you can find/what should we take out tonight’ mentality. I’m actually glad to be back to this, looking forward to some homecooked meals.

I’ve gotten both the Paula Deen magazine and the Food Network magazine recently, so I’m thinking we’ll be trying new recipes.

Sunday - Chicken tacos with black beans (I LOVE black beans. My kids not so much, but whatever.) and apple carrot slaw (I’ll take any leftover chicken and beans and make chicken taco calzones for Griff’s lunch.)

Monday -brinner - pancakes with sausage

Tuesday - Veggie Burgers (Food Network mag recipe), fruit salad

Wednesday - Fried chicken strips with broccoli & parm, glazed carrots

Thursday - Chicken and yellow rice

Friday - We’ll have Hayden and Hannah for an overnight visit, so I think we’ll get pizza for the kids. Mike and I have tickets to an Astros Spring Training game, so the sitter can hand out pizza.

    I love Black beans also. Really got used to them on a mission trip in Guatemala where they made refried black beans. YUMMY

    Long ago, in the Louisiana town we lived in, there was a Mexican restaurant that wasn’t very good at all but that made refried black beans, and oh, how I loved them!
