  • S - Swedish meatballs and noodles
    M - Black bean chicken chili
    T - Breakfast
    W - baked sandwiches (gymnastics night)
    T - Chicken and dumplings
    F - out
  • I'm impressed at you ladies who prep a new meal for each night of the week! By the time I get home from work I'm too pooped to cook every night so rely on having leftovers at least 2x/weeks.

    -Monday - tonight I have my 12-wk appt so will likely make an easy stir fry (with lots of greens!) and brown rice when I get home
    -Tuesday - leftovers
    -Wednesday - turkey chili (I'll start-up the crock pot in the morning) and pumpkin quinoa cornbread
    -Thursday - leftovers
    -Friday - takeout
    Saturday - we're hosting a big holiday party that we're getting catered with Spanish food
  • @Assiram42 Chicken and dumplings sounds amazing!

    M: Our version of a healthier "dirty rice" with turkey sausage, peppers, onions, and rice
    T: Chicken burrito bowls
    W: Light lasagna soup
    Th: Buffalo chicken wraps
    F: We generally either go out or cook something that is more of a splurge meal.
  • Monday: Chicken enchiladas with broccoli (grilled chicken with broccoli for DD)
    Tuesday: Leftovers from Monday due to ballet
    Wednesday: Spaghetti with zucchini tomato sauce
    Thursday: Buffalo chicken salad 
    Friday: White pizza

  • Monday- Leftovers from yesterday
    Tuesday- Buddha Bowl (Quinoa, beets, kale, onions, garlic, roasted chickpeas, beans, broccoli, with cilantro and peanut sauce)
    Wednesday- Roasted Chicken with veg and spinach salad with ACV and olive oil
    Thursday- Leftovers, make bone broth
    Friday- Chicken Noodle Soup with chicken leftovers and bones

    I'm impressed by everyone... I just know what I am going to make tonight, ha!

    I didn't have time to get my turkey thighs in the crockpot for turkey pot roast, so I'm going to roast them along with the carrots and yukon gold potatoes when I get home after work.  DH doesn't eat pork or beef so this is the closest we get to pot roast...

    Edit: added a few letters to make sense...
  • I am NOT doing well on the cooking/meal plan front. But here are my hopes and dreams for this week.
    Monday: This is usually my date night but my BF has work late tonight. So I'm having a Mediterranean quinoa bowl.
    Tuesday: Chicken Tacos
    Wednesday: Hot ham and cheese sandwiches with salad.
    Thursday: We are going out after work for our xmas tree so probably pizza.
    Friday: Breakfast
    Saturday is usually a free for all
    Sunday: Turkey meatloaf with tomato Mac and cheese. 


  • M-tacos
    T-spaghetti squash with meatballs and marinara sauce
    W-leftovers
    Th-kale salad mix and tortilla crusted tilapia
    F-pizza night

    I use a lot of pre-prepared stuff from Costco that I can just pull out of the freezer. Truthfully, we've been eating out a lot lately due to H's work schedule and me not feeling well. Thanks to @mamaelle27 for posting this. Hopefully I'll be able to stick with this throughout the week.
  • Tonight is leftovers from the weekend
    T: Black Bean Burgers and fries
    W: Parmigian crusted tilapia with mashed cauliflower 
    Th: Tacos w/ rice and beans
    F: Pizza and breadsticks 
    Sat: breakfast 
    Sunday will probably be eating out since we will need to go grocery shopping lol

  • I am so jealous of everyone that gets breakfast for dinner.  My husband hates pretty much all breakfast food so i never get to make it except for the rare occasion he is out of town.

    We'll wing it through the weekend. It's our first and last free one in and for months, what we eat depends on what we decide to do.

  • I need to steal ideas from this. Haven't cooked dinner in over two weeks. But my husband has cooked twice, which almost never happens. By the time dinner rolls around I have no motivation to eat and little appetite. Unless it's pizza. I do have a plan for a few meals this week 

    Monday: roasted potatoes and smoked sausage 
    Tuesday: possibly going out to eat if we take my son to see Santa. If not, then stuffed chicken breast
    Wednesday: maybe stuffed chicken if we don't eat it Tuesday. If not, idk
    Thursday I work late so fast food for me while traveling home
    Friday I work late again and eat while I drive home

    With a family of 5 there are no leftovers.

  • I have the whole week planned but I just made chicken chili for tonight and had to stop to vomit while I was cutting up the raw chicken.  Oh joy!  Mr better appreciate it since I made a double batch for his potluck at work tomorrow!! 
  • All I want to eat are sandwiches and baked potatoes. My baby likes carbs! Last week it decided that it no longer tolerates fruit or lettuce. 
  • Monday (tonight)- spanakopita and salad
    Tuesday- Pork tenderloin, broccoli and rice
    Wednesday- leftovers or whatever (I work till 8:00pm so DH usually does simple for DS...plus, he doesn't know how to cook ha)

    Saturday- whatever we feel like

  • @halfthetree we LOVE Buddha bowls!! I usually make my sauce a nutrition yeast-tahini-garlic sauce. Either way they are SO AMAZING. Going on my next week menu for sure! So glad you reminded me!

  • You ladies are amazing! We have been eating horribly. Tonight we had breakfast for dinner the rest of the week is to be determined :).
  • Wait, wait, wait..... you guys aren't just making pb and j's or boxed macaroni and cheese every night?  I'm all alone.
  • Lol @CurlyMommy416....if you read mine closely, I'm only cooking 3/7 days of the week...and one is a crockpot meal so it hardly counts  :D There's plenty of box mac n cheese floating around this joint!

  • Hey remember that awesome pork tenderloin I had on the menu for today? 

    Well I absolute hate the taste and have it SMOOTHERED in ketchup because, at least I'm getting some protein...I also didn't make the rice. 

    Shoulda stuck with mac n cheese...
