Meal plan Monday 7/17

Any interest here? I'm starting this selfishly because I've really fallen off track with the whole meal planning business. I need some inspiration. Also, its hotter than all get out so turning on the oven just does not happen. Let's here what you are eating!

    I'm game! However most days we wing it. Since it's been hot out we've been grilling a lot of chicken and potato foil packets. Another one we do is grilled sausage onions and peppers. 

    M - Spaghetti w/ big salad 
    T - Make our own pizza 
    W - Sausage pepper and onions 
    Th - Pinterest Roulette 
    F - ???

    Thursday- enchiladas

  • I like this. I also need new ideas, maybe we can also share a recipe or two?
  • Friday- citrus chicken breasts with cheesy potatoes  
    I think I need this recipe asap!

    I don't pick days ahead of time bc I usually end up changing my mind
    1. Pork carnitas tacos
    2. Spaghetti & meatballs with green beans
    3. Grilled chicken salad
    4. Chicken nuggets, rice & broccoli

    And then we're going out of town on Friday!
  • @kaylawing what Rueben Stromboli recipe are you using? That sounds salty and heavenly right about now. 
  • I love how similar a lot of our weeks look!  We have good taste y'all.  :D

    Last night we had frozen pizza since I felt like death. Tonight was B4D (sweet potato pancakes and scrambled eggs).
    Tomorrow: Chicken tacos with beans
    Wed: Grilled chicken and brussels sprouts 
    Thurs: Steak kabobs and tossed salad
    Fri: Probably going out. I think we're going to go see a movie at one of those theatres that serves dinner! 

    OK now I'm hungry, not convenient for 10:30 PM!
  • @brittyclem here is the recipe. We decided to have it tonight because I forgot to marinate what we were supposed to be having. Oops.  It was just okay for me but my dh liked it. https://southernbite.com/reuben-stromboli/

  • We had pot sticker stir fry from The Kitchn tonight. Not sure what we're doing tomorrow; I don't think DH will be home in time for dinner. Wednesday I'm getting a box from HomeChef, so that'll be dinner for the next 3 nights.

    This is a great thread!  We just got in from a mini-vacation, so I'm stretching out some freezer leftovers and an easy crockpot meal.

    M: Sandwiches from a deli by the airport
    T: Avgolemono soup & salads (Soup is frozen leftovers, so this is a basically no cooking night) 
    W: Crock pot chili with baked potatoes
    Th: Leftover chili
    F: Take out / DH figures out dinner

  • @kaylawing we call that reuben loaf in my family--my mom started making it in the 80s and I love it. I think it'd be good with ham and swiss, too, or other fillings, but I generally stick to the classic. Such good, salty comfort food.

  • @Kirss what is pinterest roulette?
  • KirssKirss member
    @jlemons-2 I usually draw a blank for dinner so I'll go to my Pinterest, and find the last recipe that I liked or pinned and make that. It's def hit or miss.

  • Friday- citrus chicken breasts with cheesy potatoes  
    I think I need this recipe asap!

    This is the recipe I use for Citrus Chicken, except I use boneless skinless chicken breasts cut in half pieces, instead of the bone-in chicken.

  • I'll play...
    Monday we had frozen corn dogs and French fries because I felt horrible.
    Tuesday: French bread pizza
    Wednesday: slow cooker pork chops
    Thursday (if I feel like it): Salisbury steak meatballs w/ mashed potatoes. This is a new Pinterest recipe for me, we'll see how it goes.
