Making Menus – RECAP below! :)

I think I have neglected this blog long enough.  I really have been cooking, but I’ve been so busy that taking pictures of food really wasn’t near the top of my priority list. 

I have not been doing a good job of menu planning this summer.  It has been busy, and I just didn’t take the time to plan.  It’s time to get back into a routine since school is starting, so I actually made a menu!  Yay for me!

 

I enjoy having a menu, because it helps me find some order in my chaotic life.  Maybe if I have a menu, I’ll actually know what to thaw out before dinner time.  Maybe.  :)

 

Here is this week’s menu RECAP:

I did a pretty good job of following the menu, at least it was good for me.  I’m pretty good at making menus, but I’m not good at following my menus.  Here’s what actually happened this week:

Monday – Honey Glazed Chicken, rice and stir fry veggies

Tuesday – Cheese Enchiladas, beans and rice

Wednesday – Tortellini with spaghetti sauce, steamed broccoli.  Call this the lack of creativity night.  microwaved corn dogs and whatever else was found in the fridge.

Thursday – Creativity day. We ate out at Chili’s. I guess that’s creative.  Ok.  Not really.

Friday – Grilled pork chops and sausages, peppers and onions, zucchini with tomatoes, macaroni and cheese, mixed veggies

Saturday – Breakfast for dinner!  Waffles and Brown sugar bacon leftover pork chops and sausages

Sunday – Crockpot Chicken Adobo (recipe to be posted soon), rice, and salad mixed veggies
