Menu Plan Monday–January 4

mpm chalkboard

I didn’t fall off the planet, I swear. I’ve been a little crazy busy for the last, oh, three months. And it doesn’t appear to be slowing down at all. But, you know, I’m still planning meals, it’s what keeps that part of my life sane. I’m now cooking for 7 people including one very picky child, one not-so-little baby toddler, and four adults. That changes things a bit. Like how many left overs we have. And our grocery bill. And how much time I have to blog. Not to mention Christmas and a birthday party for my now 7 year old!

Anyway, this is what we had on the menu last week…

Monday – BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

Tuesday – Spaghetti & Sauce

Wednesday – Ribs from Montgomery Inn (thanks UJ!) and mashed potatoes

Thursday – Pizza from Papa Murphy’s. Spent all day making K’s cake, and really really didn’t want to make anything

Friday – Rainbow Colored Spaghetti for Kahlen’s Birthday

Saturday – Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Sunday – Polish Pierogis

I’m still recovering from Kahlen’s party, so we’ll see if I get to the Pierogis tomorrow :-)

I’m also planning on doing a big batch of freezer-to-crockpot meals this week, hopefully that will save us from eating spaghetti and sauce every. single. week.

So…what have you been cooking? I think I need to find some new recipes, ones that are better suited for our family of 7!

Pictures of Kahlen’s birthday party are coming, promise
