Our weekly menus were derailed for a while b/c my son came down with a really bad case of food poisoning.  He was sick for a long time, but is back to normal now and is back to eating normal food.  Here we go again…

Saturday
Pizza

Sunday
Hamburgers
Fried potatoes
Watermelon

Monday

Baked beans
Watermelon

Tuesday
Homemade chicken fingers
Green beans
Corn bread

Chicken broccoli alfredo

(I felt like crap today and chicken fingers take a long time to make, so I decided to make alfredo instead since I already had the chicken thawed out and it is easy and quick to make.  The best part is that we consider it a whole meal so I didn’t have to make any side dishes to go along with it.  We had planned on making alfredo next week, so I’ll be making chicken fingers next week, instead.)

Wednesday
Tomato Parmesan Suddenly Salad
with grilled chicken

Thursday
Tuna salad sandwiches
Lettuce salad

Friday
Hot dogs
Tater tots
Left over suddenly salad or lettuce salad

Leftovers

(I was absent-minded and forgot to pull the hotdogs and buns from the freezer the night before, and didn’t realize it until it was too late.  We had plenty of leftovers in the fridge, so we just did a scavenge night.)

Menu June 17-23

I got this idea from another blog I came across this week.  Plath’s Adventures is a cute blog and she has a lot of good ideas about gardening, knitting, parenting, and lots of other things.  She is also a good photographer.  Check it out!

Our menu is a little off, going from Friday through Thursday, whereas most people make their menu from Sunday through Saturday.  We do all of our shopping for the week on Friday, and we sit down and come up with a menu for the week right before we go, so it works better for us this way.  We just started doing this since we moved here, and its going great so far.

Friday – Hamburgers, grilled onions, baked beans

Saturday – BLTs, Bacon Ranch Suddenly Salad, fresh strawberries

Sunday – All beef hot dogs, fried red potatoes

Monday – Salmon Patties, pasta, peas  Soup, salad
We didn’t get any sleep the night before, so we were exhausted.  Salmon Patties take a lot of work, so we weren’t up to it.  We’re moving this meal to next week instead.

Tuesday – Homemade chicken fingers, tater tots, green beans,cornbread
I thought we had tater tots and didn’t check before we left for the store, but we don’t.

Wednesday – Tuna salad sandwiches, ceasar suddenly salad

Thursday – Grilled sirloin steak, cauliflower and broccoli
