It's time to plan the menus for the week. As I've done before, I will just list the meals and wait to see what the week brings to decide when to make what. On Mondays, the kids go to dance then AWANA, so it's a sandwich day. Tuesdays are pretty simple meals because we go grocery shopping in the afternoon after Ga'hoole Girl's piano lesson. This week, the kids have a lot of input into the menus because they both want to help cook - which is fine with me!
1. Red Beans and Rice - Mr. Math Tutor and Ga'hoole Girl cook this because I don't like it. I'll have a sandwich that night.
2. Tacos - Wild Man's request. Besides, we have tons of ground beef and venison in the freezer.
3. Irish Stew - We have the lamb bone left over from leg of lamb a few months ago, so we'll make our own stock and then make stew.
4. Grilled Cheese Sandwiches - I like to add spinach to my sandwiches and Wild Man likes to cook them.
5. Pasta with Garlic, Herbs, and Parmesan cheese - Easy and cheap.
6. Leftovers - at least one meal's worth!
Wild Man also wants to make a chocolate pound cake this week, and I want to make some whole wheat bread. We won't be bored in the kitchen this week!. Check out orgjunkie.com for more great menu plans.
Oooh...I'm with Wild Man. I'd love some of that chocolate pound cake. Yum!
