It is late September and I am starting to get excited for all the holidays coming up! Fall is one of my favorite times of year, and I spent this past weekend planting my garden. I know it’s kind of late, but in Florida our planting season runs long, so I’m hoping to get some good stuff this year! I love being able to go out in the backyard and pick my own vegetables and herbs! This is our menu for this week:

Monday: Grilled chicken with cheesy acorn squash

Tuesday: Spaghetti

Wednesday: Buffalo Chicken tacos

Thursday: Meatloaf and grilled veggies

Friday: Chili Mac

Another week, another scorcher! Its so hot here you can’t really be outside for long, but we are going to brave the theme parks for our visit of the year on Monday because we were able to snag some sweet fast passes. Fortunately, as pass holders, we can come and go as we please, so we are free to pop in for a couple rides and then go home, meaning we don’t spend the entire day trying to squeeze all we can out in these ridiculous temperatures! So, this is our menu for the week:

Monday: Crock pot mojo pork, because theme parks

Tuesday: Leftover pork turned into Cuban sandwiches

Wednesday: Lemon Chicken with cauliflower

Thursday: Cheeseburger pie

Friday: I have to work so who knows?

Hello everybody! I had a great time celebrating my birthday last week and now we are getting back into the swing of our school schedule. School starts kind of early down here in Florida and while we can make our own schedule we are doing things a little differently this year and gradually easing into it, starting now. That means getting back to early mornings, which is a little hard! Also, it means my schedule is that much more packed during the day, so I begin to rely on quick meals for dinner as I settle into a routine. Here’s our menu for this week:

Monday: Cheaters Chicken and Rice

Tuesday: Enchilada Casserole

Wednesday: Sloppy Joes and sweet potato fries

Thursday: Sausage and Veggie skillet

Friday: probably spaghetti

Woohoo! This is our vacation week. I am so totally excited. Every year we head up to the mountains of western NC for a week of R&R. It is nice to get away with my family to a place that doesn’t really have great cell phone reception or super reliable internet where we can hang out and go hiking and enjoy the outdoors and just spend time together. I do cook when we’re on vacation, because let’s face it, eating out every night is expensive. However, I try to keep my meals simple and easy so I can spend less time in the kitchen and more time relaxing. This is my vacation menu:

Monday: Mexican Chicken Salad

Tuesday: Shepherd’s Pie

Wednesday: Spaghetti

Dinner out: (it’s our 21st anniversary!)

Friday: hamburgers/hot dogs down by the lake

Thank you for stopping by! I hope you have a great week!

How’s your New Year going? Honestly, 2018 seems to be off to a better start than 2017 was at this point, so I guess that’s a good thing. Florida is moving into the second week of actual winter this year (in case you didn’t know, there was actual snow the first week of the year!) which is unusual, but I am actually enjoying the change in temperature. It allows me to cook all my soups/casseroles/comfort foods that go with cold weather. So, with that in mind, here is my menu for the week:

Monday: Corn Chowder

Tuesday: Tomato and Red Pepper soup with baked grilled cheese

Wednesday: Stewed Pork with Beans

Thursday: Mushroom Soup with a side salad

Friday: Kielbasa Winter Stew

Thanks for stopping by for Menu Plan Monday! Have a great week.

Monday: Spaghetti

Tuesday: Pork Tacos

Wednesday: Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Thursday: Shepherd’s Pie
