Menu Planning Monday - September 17th

Here we are again. Does the madness of chasing 3 kids never end? I love it, but some days I just need two of me! Two school open house events for the two youngest kids this week (and that includes me sitting at Girl Scout information tables then too), and bell choir. Lizzy is re-starting her riding lessons this weekend, thank goodness it's a weekend off.

Without further ado:

Monday - Chicken and rice, carrots
Tuesday - Hot dogs (and vegetarian hot dogs) and macaroni and cheese
Wednesday - One dish vegetarian pasta
Thursday - Black beans and rice
Friday - Chicken fingers and french fries
Saturday - Pizza night
Sunday - Fend-for-yourself (shopping day)

After school snacks include:
vegetables and ranch dip
sunflower seeds
homemade muffins (apple spice, snickerdoodle)
pretzles

Menu Planning Monday - September 3rd

And finally, school is back in session!

Between work, soccer, summer camps, and so much more, I basically took the summer "off' from blogging. I was finding it tedious and "work" and something I wasn't very proud of at the end of the day. So much has changed, yet stayed the same, since my last posting... but we'll have time to catch up later.

For now, I leave you with this weeks menu!

Monday: Take-out... busy night this night before the first day of school!
Tuesday: Chicken fingers and french fries with veggie snack tray
Wednesday: Pasta with marinara sauce, and side salad
Thursday: Chicken and rice, with broccoli
Friday: Leftovers, fend-for-yourself night
Saturday: Pizza with side salad
Sunday:  Shopping day, we'll see what tickles mom's fancy!
