Re: Meal Plan Monday 1/23

  • Mon: Chicken tacos and rice
    Tues: Spaghetti
    Wed: Lots of tots (inspired by Hooters - tater tots with nacho cheese, bacon, sour cream, jalapeños) Super healthy  ;)
    Thurs: Baked chicken and mashed potatoes. The chicken will most likely be baked with mayo, cheese, and bread crumbs.
    Fri: Taco pizza - Found the recipe on Pinterest.

  • @mylittleirvz loving all the soup/chili on the menu! I was going to add loaded baked potato soup on the menu for this week, but I really want to enjoy it while it's raining and today/yesterday was our last day of rain for a whole week (supposedly)!

  • @wagnerw your breakfast cravings this whole pregnancy have been cracking me up! I got hungry about 9pm the other night and had DH make me a bowl of cereal. Bad idea. I was so sick in the night (Milk doesn't always agree with my stomach).

  • Yesterday I got creative and made a crock pot southwestern Mac n cheese. Not bad. And then Monday hit and the exhaustion hit and I was like "screw it" and ordered some frozen, slap in the oven meals to be delivered to my house via grocery delivery. Work is too crazy this week and so is trying to avoid DH's crazy contagious sickness (he started antibiotics today finally) so I'm not even gonna bother this week. Maybe I should wait and put that in the FFFC thread.  :D

    @wagnerw I'm with you. Currently munching on cinnamon Chex. 
  •  Tonight I went grocery shopping and had every intention of making dinner.. instead DH ended up making hot dogs and Mac and cheese bc I was too nauseous..

    Tuesday- meatloaf with mashed and veggies or cottage pie haven't decided...

    Wednesday- Catalina chicken with baked potato and veggies

    Thursday- I'm working so DH and DD will fend for themselves. (Aka take out)

    Friday- Parm crusted chicken with cheesy broccoli rice

    I have to work all weekend so that's as far as I've got.. I'd love chili somewhere in the mix but DD doesn't like anything even a little spicy and DH doesn't like beans :(

  • I've missed meal plan Monday! Yesterday we had Panda Express take out. Today I made one pot chicken mushroom pasta from a video that's been floating around on Facebook. Tomorrow is turkey tacos, and beyond that I'm stuck.
  • Mmmmm @KirstinH88 have you already tried that recipe?   Maybe I'll make it Thursday before work.. looks great and DH would love that!

  • @HappyAnjel I did! I made it about two weeks ago and it was pretty simple! I like simple recipes! I tried a crockpot one previously, but the potatoes came out too mushy. This one was yum!!!!

  • @KirstinH88 haha I've always loved breakfast food but now it's just so much more prevalent for many reasons. DH tried fighting the cereal addiction at the beginning of pregnancy, but clearly we know who won that debate. Not only does it taste good, but it's simple, no dishes, and it makes me feel full without feeling gross. I'm finding that a lot of days by the time we eat dinner my stomach already feels full of food and eating makes me feel awful. Cereal is so light that I get to eat and yet it doesn't make me feel like I overate/want to puke. It's a win-win for me :)

  • I'm being a little lazy this week and ordering a blue apron... which mostly means I don't have to figure out when to go grocery shopping. 

    Monday: Chili Nachos
    Tuesday: Butternut Squash and Sweet potato soup
    Wednesday: Blue Apron - Tacos
    Thursday: Blue Apron - African peanut chicken
    Friday: Breakfast for Dinner and a movie with friends 

    I'm looking for some inspiration for grab and go breakfast... I had been doing yogurt and granola but the kind I buy started giving me too much heartburn. Toast or cereal is my go to right now but feel like I want to find something more interesting/nutritious.

    @jdupree15 I've made breakfast "muffins" in a cupcake pan, then refrigerate them. I grab one in the morning and pop it in the micro for a 30-45 seconds and yum!

  • Monday we had Pork chops from my parents piggies, kale and leeks, and wild rice.

    Last night i made up an Asian style siracha baked salmon with baby bok choy and white rice. It was amazing.

    Tonight my DH is making some chicken tenders from our chickens, kale and leeks again (bought too many) and fries

    We will see about tmrw!
  • Tonight's dinner is moving to Saturday and we are just going to have leftovers tonight. I'm bummed because I was really looking forward to those Lots of Tots.  :( Hurry up Saturday!
