Weekly Meals: 11/30 – 12/5

I’ve been a little…preoccupied…lately so I haven’t really been doing much cooking at home.  Therefore, I’ve been slacking with my meal ideas.  That changes today.  Here’s a couple meal ideas for you for the next week:

11/30:  Buffalo Mac & Cheese with Baked Potatoes
12/1:  Brown Sugar Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes
12/2:  Kim’s BBQ Chicken Sandwiches & Corn
12/3:  Leftovers
12/4:  Tortellini with Peas and Proscuitto &Quinoa with Pine Nuts,
Raisins, and Garlic
12/5:  Beef Stir Fry with Snow Peas and Jasmine Rice

As I was looking through my blog to link you to the recipes I was talking about, I realized I haven’t done a blog about my version of Brown Sugar Meatloaf!  What the heck?!  That will be remedied in the coming week.  It’s probably Jeff’s most requested meal and it is amazing!  Stay tuned for that!  For now, you can find the original recipe by clicking on the link above.  Have a great week, everyone!

Weekly Menu: 10/26 – 11/2

It’s my off day, so you know what that means!  Weekly Menu time!

Tuesday, 10/26:  Beef Tacos
Wednesday, 10/27:  Tuna Salad Sandwiches
Thursday, 10/28:  Buffalo Chicken Tenders  (adapted from this recipe)
Friday, 10/29:  Crock Pot Pulled Pork
Saturday, 10/30:  leftovers
Sunday, 10/31:  Beef Stroganoff
Monday, 11/1:  Chicken Florentine Casserole
Tuesday, 11/2:  Marinated Grilled Chicken

I am making a list of my favorite meals.  A list of go to meals, if you will.  What are your favorite meals from childhood or adulthood?  What meals do you find yourself making over and over…and over….again?

Weekly Menu: 10/19-10/25

As I suspected, last week’s menu did not go quick as planned.  I ended up making two of the five meals I originally intended.  Whoops.  That’s the way things go in the Desjarlais household.  Oh well.  Recycling menu ideas is just some of the fun!  Here’s the next week’s potential menu!

Tuesday, 10/19:  Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole
Wednesday, 10/20:  Sloppy Joes
Thursday, 10/21:  Leftovers
Friday, 10/22:  Green Noodles
Saturday, 10/23:  Potential Date Night (yay!)
Sunday, 10/24:  Baked Buffalo Chicken
Monday, 10/25: tbd

Neither Jeff nor I are very big broccoli fans, but for some reason I would love to be able to eat it.  It’s just so good for you!  Any of you lovely readers have suggestions for me on how to make broccoli more appealing?  Thanks in advance!

Weekly Menu 10/12-10/16

I’m trying something new.  Starting today, I am going to try to post weekly menus on my blog.  These not only help me be organized in the kitchen, they might give you guys a little inspiration too!  If you’re anything like me, you need all the inspiration you can get.

Tuesday, 10/12:  BLTs
Wednesday, 10/13:  Jenna’s Mom’s Enchiladas
Thursday, 10/14:  Slow Cooker French Dip
Friday, 10/15:  Sloppy Joes
Saturday, 10/16:  Green Noodles

Disclaimer:  I have a retail job which means I am not home every night of the week or every weekend.  This also means I have varying off days (like today).  My weeks may not start on the same day every week, as I plan my meals on my off days.  I am hoping to keep up with this series of posts, but am not guaranteeing anything!

Do you have any weekly menu blogs you visit frequently?
