Mar. 10, 2008 • Menu Plan Monday - Mar 10

Posted in Menu Plan Monday


So far, so good with Menu Plan Monday. I don't always stick strictly to the menus, but this is really helping me keep up with grocery shopping and cooking regularly. This week I'm trying to use items I already have at home since I have to replenish some pantry items and I'm trying to keep the food budget down.

If you want to see other people's menus for this week or post your own, go to orgjunkie.com.

Monday

Breakfast: Porridge (this is what my kids call oatmeal when I soak the oats overnight), milk
Lunch: Tuna Melts, carrot sticks
Dinner: Cheesy Chicken Vermicelli, cooked greens

Tuesday

Breakfast: Oatmeal Muffins (Allyson makes these), fruit
Lunch: PB & J, milk
Dinner: Chili, cornbread, salad

Wednesday

Breakfast: Five Grain Hot Cereal, milk
Lunch: Ramen Soup (Nathan makes this), celery sticks with peanut butter
Dinner: Spaghetti, Quick & Easy Garlic Bread Sticks, salad

Thursday

Breakfast: Yogurt with Homemade Granola and fruit

Dinner: Savoury Squirrel Bakes (from Kathryn's Redwall cookbook)

Dinner: Homemade Pizza, salad

Looks like you have a great week lined up! I'm so impressed that you plan all 3 meals. I have to ask: is squirrel bakes made from squirrel, literally? (Your blog name always makes me smile--my maiden name is Elliott.) Have a great week!
