    Dh came up with the menu this week so it should be interesting. We had steak wraps with peppers and cheese last night that didn’t agree with me. Also on the menu are cheeseburgers w/ sweet potato fries, grilled chicken w/grilled veggies and grilled pizzas.

    @kbrown2385 Those meals actually sound semi-appetizing. 

    Not sure what we’re having tonight but we’re having waffles for dinner tomorrow, grilled burgers and corn on Wednesday, pizza on Thursday, and we eat out on Fridays. Hope I can stomach it all.

    A few meals on the menu are lasagna, grilled chicken with "Olive Garden" salad, lemon pepper chicken with mashed potatoes, and probably a few take out meals.

    I need someone to teach me the meal planning ways!
    I am so disorganised & end up picking up something for dinner on my way home every evening for dinner. I always think if I meal plan in advance that I wont want what im supposed to have on a given day.

    Monday: peanut butter crackers
    Tuesday: toast
    Wednesday: ramen noodles
    Thursday: pretzels
    Friday: popsicles 

    I’m totally jealous of anyone that can plan meals in advance right now. I just ask myself what I can stomach at any given moment and I usually don’t have it in the house.

    @carrieandr - Lol, That's what I felt like making my meal plan, but I actually felt good enough on Saturday to pretend that I'm actually going to eat normally this week.

    @leprechaunlady I don’t always follow the meal plan I have. I just make sure I have my ingredients on hand for the week and switch it up as the week allows. If I don’t make everything thing in a week, it usually gets moved to the weekend or following week. Don’t let the “plan” bog you down :)

    Meal planning is not proving to be successful this week.

    M: taco gnocchi skillet with ground turkey...which DH made graciously, and I couldn't even stomach the smell of it, let alone the one bite I took.
    T: hoping to try grilled chicken, but will likely just have a baked potato and a basic salad with ranch dressing, cheese and croutons
    W: left overs...I'll probably have another baked potato
    Th: we're going to member night at the zoo, so I'm hoping to get home in time to make grilled cheeses to take with us
    F: hopefully wings because they've been sounding good to me

    Fish sounds good too, as does most seafood. Even though we live at the beach, most fish is still outrageously expensive. I don't know how long I can manage $24.99/lb cod and halibut. I can only eat so much salmon. And I could go for tuna all the time, but am trying to limit it to once/month. I already had sushi last week (spicy tuna and some tuna tataki), so guess it's out until July.

    A shrimp alfredo sounds good...maybe I'll add it to this weekend/next week's menu. And breakfast for dinner.

    @jitterbug1419 recipe for the sausage rigatoni pasta? Sounds delicious!

    @kbrown2385 - it’s one of the first meals I made for DH after we were married and almost 11 years later it’s still in regular rotation!    It calls for kraft sundried tomato vinaigrette which I have the best luck finding at Walmart. For recipe tweaks I use closer to 1/2 c dressing and cook an entire pound of pasta so we can have leftovers for lunches a few days.     We also use ground Italian sausage instead of links.
