Menu Plan Monday - June

I thought for sure that  we wouldn’t stick to the menu by the end of the 6 week plan that I made last time I posted a menu, but we actually did! At least as much as we usually do, anyway.

I would’ve posted this last week, but it’s been a crazy last two weeks. We finished up our history co-op and several other main subjects the last week of May and then rolled right into VBS at our church, which was fun but a lot of work. We’ve also had a stomach bug making it’s way through our family. Kahlen was the last one to fall to it yesterday, so I’m praying that we have no more sickness this summer!!

There are several new recipes that I’m excited to try out! I’ll try to let you know how they turned out. From last month, our new recipes were:

• Chicken Pot Pie Soup – This one was tasty, I’ll definitely make it again. I want to make more crust crackers next time though.
• Sweet & Sour Citrus Chicken – quite delicious, also will be making this again. It was a nice change from our regular Orange Chicken Stir-Fry
• Light and Crispy Waffles – These were okay, but we still like our Buttermilk Citrus Waffles better
• Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole – Not a fan. It wasn’t a bad recipe, but it made too much and Tim didn’t like it. I’m not huge on leftovers, I rely on hubs to eat them, so when he doesn’t, they usually go to waste :/ We probably won’t make this one again.
• Green Beans, Potatoes, and Chicken – Simple, easy to make, satisfying. We’ll be making this meal again for sure.
