Menu Plan Monday


This past week was hard on our meal planning, but I am motivating myself to try again.

I am not organized enough to plan out breakfast and lunch with the kids, but I am planning on introducing different foods to them, or working on foods that they have not been very receptive to in the past.

New "kid" foods:
  • brussels sprouts
  • honeydew melon
  • white fish
  • bell peppers

Menu for this week:
  • Monday -- Chicken Fajitas, veggies.
  • Tuesday -- Kale & Potato Stew (crock pot), bread.
  • Wednesday -- Thai Curry, rice, veggies.
  • Thursday -- Chili (crock pot), corn bread.
  • Friday -- Spaghetti, veggies, bread.
  • Saturday -- Nachos, green salad.
  • Sunday -- Leftovers night. Not very exciting, but necessary.

Check out other menu plan's at $5 Dinners (our guest host for the week - next week Menu Plan Monday is back at OrgJunkie)

Happy Monday!

Keep it up! A little practice and you'll be a pro soon! I like how you are planning "new kid foods". Great idea!

I couldn't come to terms with brussel sprouts and I tried. Congrats on it becoming your "new kid food".

I'm weird - I love brussel sprouts. My mom used to make them all the time. Yum. :)

I love brussel sprouts, too, which was why I wanted to introduce them to my children early. We use to grow them in our garden when I was a kid.

My son wouldn't eat them, though, until I sprinkled a little cheese on top. Of coarse, my daughter gobbled them, cheese or no cheese.
