Meal Plan: April 22 - 28

I inadvertently cooked too much for two meals that I made over the weekend, so I am scrapping my original plan and taking advantage of an easy week.  Stay tuned for some new meals in the week ahead!

Monday:  Chicken noodle soup made from Sunday's roast chicken

Tuesday:  Pasta shells stuffed with butternut squash and topped with red pepper-cream sauce (left over from Saturday)

Wednesday:  Left over soup

Thursday:  Sliced chicken and light gravy with German Potato Salad and pickled cabbage

Friday:  Taco night!

Meal Plan: April 13 - 21 (Staycation/Vacation and back to good habits)

I know, I know, it's been forever!  By now you must think I've given over to a life of frozen chicken bits and boxes of pasta and cheese powder.  Lest you worry, I assure you that we have been eating quite delicious, if simpler meals, but we just haven't been planning or posting as we like to.  This being vacation week, I am using the time off to get back to some of our better habits.
