Menu plan for the week ahead

I'm looking forward to getting a lot done today, so I can spend most of tomorrow relaxing! Here's what's on the list for my "getting things done" Saturday.


  1. Take Nick to soccer
  2. Run 3 miles at warmups
  3. Meet Sam at his game, and take him home
  4. Make a menu plan
  5. Make a Costco list from the menu plan
  6. Clean the house
  7. M to manage another game, with a bonus child who needs a ride
  8. And, date night!

So, with that, what shall we eat this week? 

  • Friday - yesterday we had carnitas from the freezer. I forgot to top them with broth before I broiled them, so they weren't as good as usual. Oops.
  • Saturday - we're eating out, and I'll make a cheese pizza for the kids.
  • Sunday - M is making steak, potatoes & asparagus for Mother's Day. Yum!
  • Monday - chicken taco soup (late night with work, prep on Sunday)
  • Tuesday - chicken bacon salad stuffed avocados (chicken likely subbed for turkey)
  • Wednesday - leftover chicken taco soup
  • Thursday - leftover chicken bacon salad stuffed avocados
  • Friday - Boys & I will be on our own & then heading to the airport to pick up my sister & friend, so something quick & easy. Maybe burgers. 

What about you? What are you hoping to accomplish today?  For all of those moms, or those who play a role of mom to someone in your life, wishing you a very happy & relaxing Mother's Day!

  2. Sounds like a tasty week! No idea yet what this week will bring for our meals. It is too early for me to think about them, but I did a pretty big food have this week and have many options.

    1. It feels good when you have a lot of options to pull from, doesn't it?

    1. Sounds like a good combination of productive & fun? Maybe the brunch at least? :-)
