The theme of this week’s menu is using what we already have as a starting point for meals.
Monday – Haircut night, meeting Dad for a sandwich dinner out!
Tuesday – Fajitas, to use up tortillas, beans, cheese, sour cream we already have. One chicken breast will be enough for all of us in combination with beans.
Wednesday – Greek salmon salad, to use up salmon patties in the freezer. Combined with romaine, feta, olives, and “Good Seasons” Greek Vinaigrette
Thursday – Sloppy Joes, already in the freezer from a prior meal
Friday – ‘Cheaters’ Cuban Sandwich, boiled ham, provolone, mayo/whole grain mustard, pickles in the Foreman Grill.

Well, we officially have turned our heat on! I was home sick last week and spent some time reminding myself of what we like to eat when the weather turns cool. It was fun to look through menu plans I have in notebooks going back for many years.
We have extra incentive to get our meals planned out because our church is participating in ‘Meals@Home‘, a commitment to sit down to eat at home as a family at least three times a week. We track our meals each month and share photos on Facebook as a way to keep the momentum going.
Monday – Tacos
Tuesday – Shrimp and yukon gold potatoes from our garden. So. Many. Potatoes!!
Wednesday – Ballet night, but we can bring a take and bake pizza home and still have dinner together.
Thursday – Jazzercise night for me … Grilled cheese and pea soup
Friday – Eggs (from my friend’s chickens) and breakfast-for-dinner accompaniments.
