I did something today. I sat down and planned out our meals that we will have for the rest of the month. This is a good accomplishment for me because, up until now, I have only been menu planning for one week at a time. Since I'm new to this, starting with one week has been manageable for me, but now I think I've gotten the hang of it enough to wear I feel comfortable planning for 2 weeks at a time. Baby steps, right?
I have very much enjoyed the process of putting together a meal plan. Even though it does take a bit of time, it is something I look forward to doing every week.
Is it because I just love FOOD so much.
Or is it the organizing I love?
Maybe I just like Organizing Food?!
Being able to sift through recipes... putting together the ingredients I have with the ingredients I need to buy like a puzzle... then actually cooking it and seeing your creation come together... and then eating it. I love it all!
So, I thought I would share the love and post my meal plan for the next 2 weeks.
On the Table the Rest of This Week
Friday (tonight): Vegetable Lasagna with garlic bread
Saturday: Cheesesteak Sandwiches (minus the mayo) I'm making these for lunch and we will be going out to eat in Asheville that night. (It's fight night!)
Sunday: Leftovers
Week of March 21
Monday: Southwest Chicken Salad with tortilla chips and salsa (I'll use the leftover chicken to make quesadillas for lunch one day.)
Tuesday: BCM Dinner (no cooking for me that night)
Wednesday: We are having dinner at our church
Thursday: Black Bean Wraps
Friday: Honey Dijon Chicken Sandwiches with steamed broccoli and carrots
Saturday: Leftovers
Sunday: We are going out of town this day
Week of March 28
Monday: We will still be out of town (coming back home that evening)
Tuesday: BCM Dinner
Wednesday: Dinner at our church
Thursday: Chickpea, Lentil and Rice Stew
Friday - Sunday: We will be out of town for the Campus Ministry Spring Conference this weekend, so we will most likely have leftovers on Sunday evening.
I hope you enjoyed having a little sneak peak into my "end of March" meal plan. I really enjoy putting these menus together and so love sharing it with you! Have a happy weekend!
