Menu Plan Monday


I am switching things up just a little this week.  I have some exciting news that I will share with you tomorrow.  Because of this news I am feeling like I am going to need a little more planning in my life.  With that said I am trying out Menu Plan Monday hosted by I'm An Organizing Junkie.  I have actually been following her blog for a very long time.  I am new at this and I have not decided how I will handle recipes.  So for right now you will have to beg me for them! ;)  Ha just kidding.  If anything interests you please just send me a a note and I will either email it to you or post it.

I am giving each meal a day, but usually I plan seven items for the week and cook them on the days I am feeling like eating it.

Monday:
Gilled Chicken Salad

Tuesday:
Asian Grilled Steak and Side Salad

Wednesday:
Crockpot Porketta, Yellow potatoes and green beans

Thursday:
Spaghetti, Garlic bread and Side Salad

Friday:
Pizza (hubby has been asking for this)

I will be eating Santa Fe Rice and Beans

Saturday:
Chicken Rice Casserole

Sunday:
Grilled Shrimp Ceasar Salads

I know these are pretty boring meals, but I have some pretty stocked cabinets and freezers I am trying to thin out.  I am also trying to stick with my Weight Watchers.

On that note I am proud to report that this week I have lost 1 pound!  So that puts me to 49 pounds to go.  I was hoping to loose 2 pounds a week, but I am allowing myself to be happy with this small victory.  I know where I will cut back this week and I will add in more workouts as well.

Hope everyone had a great weekend and has a wonderful week!

  3. I can't meal plan... yet. I've tried so many times, and just can't find a way to make it work for me. But, I usually do sort of plan what we're going to eat when I'm grocery shopping, it's just not really by week, it's more like, how many meals can I make before I have to go back to the grocery store, haha. :-)
