Menu Plan, done a bit differently this time!

This picture has nothing to do with the post. I just think Hedwig is adorable!

We are still trying to adjust to a more organized approach to our household tasks. To be honest, having a regimented plan for meals seems to restricting for us just yet. So, we’re going to try a different approach, because the basic idea is wonderful for preventing food waste & preserving sanity. This incarnation of the EE’s menu plan will be a list of options available for meals. We can choose an option which appeals to our taste buds that day as well as last minute schedule changes.

Breakfast choices include eggs, cheese, cereal, oatmeal, grits, granola, yogurt, fruit, milk, and juice.

Dinner choices include leftovers, sandwiches, grains, fruit,veggies, crackers, peanut butter, cheese, and tea.

Supper choices include:
1}    Cream of chicken & mushroom soup, oyster crackers
2}    Ham & bean soup, cornbread
3}    Roasted veggie & pepperoni pizza
4}    Chicken & dumplings
5}    Red beans & rice with link sausage
6}    Oven fried chicken legs, corn fritters, pea & carrot salad
7}    Herb crusted pork chops, mashed potatoes, green beans
8}    Lasagna
9}    Meatloaf, white rice, black eye peas
10}  Tomato-sage egg cups, cheese grits, fruit salad
11}  Grilled kielbasa, roasted winter squash, tomato herb couscous
12}  Loaded sweet potatoes with maple sausage crumbles & Asiago cheese
13}  Corned beef hash, black bean relish, polenta rounds
14}  Scallop paella

The next few weeks are going to be hectic, so other than needing to make a run for perishables, I want to have everything on hand. We also need to use up our pantry stash. We are beyond blessed!

So, what are you planning to eat this week?
