Meal Plan Monday

(This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.)

October 26, 2015 By Jenny Leave a Comment

meal planning saves my sanity (and a lot of money by not visiting the nearest drive thru).  Each Monday, I quickly sketch out my meal plan for the week. Here's this week's meal plan!

Do you ever get tired of hearing, “Hey, what’s for dinner?”

I do!  5:15 P.M. to 6:15 P.M. is known as the witching hour at my house.

It never fails that if I don’t have a plan in place for dinner, my darling children soon become something wicked out of a horror movie.

In other words, meal planning saves my sanity (and a lot of money by not visiting the nearest drive thru).  Each Monday, I quickly sketch out my plan for the week.  Being married to a farmer and having kids in a lot of activities, I need a plan that’s flexible.

I make fairly easy meals during the week and more complicated ones on the weekends when I have more time at home.

We are still harvesting so that also makes my meal planning a little wacky right now.  I’m really lucky that most nights Jason’s mom cooks for all of us (God bless her, she is truly a wonderful lady!) and others we eat at home and either take Jason a sandwich or she takes the guys food.

The kids also have no school on Thursday or Friday due to Fall Break so I have a few extra meals that everyone will be home to plan for.

So my tentative meal plan looks like this:

This Week’s Meal Plan:

Breakfast:

Scrambled Eggs & Toast

(Brunch) Yummy Baked French toast

Blueberry Muffins

Oatmeal or Yogurt with Granola

Cereal

Breakfast Grilled Cheese

Cinnamon Toast or Cereal

Lunch:

Out- Nora has therapy

Ham or Turkey Sandwiches, Chips, Apples

Lasagna, Green Beans, Garlic Bread

Leftovers

Eating With Family

Dinner:

Meatloaf/Potato Crockpot Bake

Grilled pizza, salad, and fruit

Grilled steak, grilled garlic potatoes, Broccoli

Eating with Family

Halloween (we’ll probably grab a sandwich before taking the kids Trick or Treating)

Leftovers

Snacks:

Apples with Peanut Butter

Popcorn

No Bake Cookies

Homemade Uncrustables
