Menu Plan Monday - October 18

Last week went mostly according to plan. Then Wednesday, when I finished mopping, I sat down for a quick break and completely forgot to cook my chicken for that night's gumbo. Since we were at the state fair all day Thursday, I didn't feel like cooking when I got home - plus after the corny dog and the funnel cake and all the samples, I needed something very light. Friday night Billy surprised us with dinner out - at Jason's Deli. I got my new usual, the Mediterranean Wrap with a side of fresh fruit. Perfect!

This week I'm hoping to get back on track, but I'm going to have to revise the menu I made out last week. I forgot to add certain ingredients to my shopping list...

Monday
Chicken & Sausage Gumbo - finally!

Tuesday
Popcorn Shrimp
(Knorr) Parmesan Noodles
Salad

Wednesday
Breaded Chicken Tenders
Fiesta Corn
Green Beans

Thursday
Turkey Club Sandwiches
Chips

Friday
leftovers

Saturday
GRILL DAY!
We've been waiting for the weather to cool down enough for Billy to grill meat for the week, and once it did we were too busy on weekends to do it. I'm so excited to finally grill our steaks, burgers, chicken, pork chops, and hot links!

Sunday
Lunch: Burgers & Sweet Potato Fries
Supper: sandwiches

I'm really looking forward to planning next week's menu around our grilled meat selections! I even have a new recipe or two I want to try.

LOL - I've got a headache and when I read Saturday's grill items, the chicken and pork chops combined and I read "chicken pot pie!" I thought, "How in the world do you grill THAT?!" LOL

I tagged you on my blog - if you want to play!
