Week of Nov. 14th

Are we almost 1/2 way through November?  Wow, this month has flown by quickly and I am not ready for the holiday season to move SO quickly!  I love this time of year and don't want it to pass me by when I am not looking.

Sun: Chicken Tetrazzini with side salad
(We did not get to this last week, so we moved it on back and one less meal to go shopping for today.)  Also, read the reviews on this link as it gives some pretty good ideas...

Mon: Butternut Squash Soup with grilled cheese on roasted garlic bread

Tues: Leftovers

Wed: Chicken Enchilada Casserole with Spanish Rice
(We use La Preferida Spanish Rice as it cooks in 10 minutes and makes an easy side dish.)  I also have already pre-made black beans that we may add as another side dish.

Thurs: Leftovers

Fri: Leftovers

Week of Nov. 7

Yes, I have been nonexistent for awhile, but things are changing!  Being pregnant with our first child, the days seem to drag on a bit, tiredness sets in, and the last thing I feel like doing is COOKING.  Well, I am feeling a bit better and money needs to be saved, so I am back making my lists!

Sat: Italian chicken w/ cauliflower and cheese
For my Italian chicken I marinade chicken breasts in Italian dressing (any kind that you like) then dump it in a baking pan with a little bit more dressing for moisture, and bake covered with foil until done.

Sun: Creamy Baked Ziti w/side salad and baguette



Mon:  Leftovers

TuesBroiled Parmesan Tilapia w/ baked potato and side salad



Thurs.: Leftovers

Fri.: Leftovers

Week of Sept. 26

Ok, new recipes have been wonderful.  The last two weeks have been crazy and I really haven't cooked much.  With family in town and LOTS of leftovers, this has taken priority rather than new dishes.  This week will be a mixture of recipes not tried and some old favorites.  Enjoy!

Week of Sept. 5th

Ok, for some reason I way over planned last week and I was able to move three recipes from last week to this week.  That is nice as there is less time at the grocery store on this holiday weekend and MORE relaxation time!  I also stopped my meal planning on Thursday as we already have other plans for this weekend.
