Menu Plan Monday: May 10th

Wow! It has been a crazy few weeks!  Made even crazier with the lack of menu planning!  I really need to start forcing myself into a better system for menu planning and grocery shopping/couponing

This week will mainly be some freezer/pantry meals since we're attempting to cut back on some spending in the next few weeks.  It should be pretty easy to do since I still have some pre-made items left in the freezer. 

I did notice that our pantry is going to be in need of re-stocking soon, but for now, I just want to purchase the basics. 

Here's what's cookin' for dinners this week: 

  • M:     Beef Barley Soup, biscuits
  • T:      Chicken Croquettes, mashed potatoes, corn
  • W:     Chicken Soft Tacos, refried beans, Spanish rice
  • T:      Potato, egg and sausage skillet, toast 
  • F:      Chicken soup, grilled cheese sandwiches
  • S:      Scallops, veggies and pasta with garlic and oil
  • S:      Turkey, mashed potatoes, veggies
I'm planning for 7 dinners this week, even though, I have no idea what our weekend plans are yet.  Most likely, some of the nights may get switched around or carried over into next week.  That's okay, having some sort of plan helps, even if it ends up getting changed. 

Don't forget to check out Menu Plan Monday, a weekly blog carnival that features menu plans and recipes!

Also, I'm getting very  close to my 100th post! 
I think I'm at 93 with this post. 
Anyway, be sure to check back...
I'll be announcing a giveaway to celebrate my 100th post!
