Weekly menu - 2 Apr 06

This past week we had date night on Saturday so the kids had Mac and Cheese (B refused to eat and later told me gleefully that he played with trains instead) and we had sushi. We also had a room meeting on one night with middle eastern food so I used the meatloaf on a different night. An additional shopping trip was requested in the middle of the week for extra cereal and milk but instead we finished two of the five boxes on the shelf and the kids had soy milk on Friday night. I felt good about not shopping again as I am trying to reduce our food bill...

Dinner for this week

  • Sunday - Chicken Minestrone with alphabet pasta
  • Monday - Pasta with shrimp, fennel, and lemon (one of my favorites)
  • Tuesday - Quesadillas with chicken
  • Wednesday - Fish in parchment
  • Thursday - Pasta with sausage (didn't get to make it last week)
  • Friday - Pizza night, Trader Joes pizza and leftovers
  • Saturday - Enchiladas

Lunches for our almost 4 year old and almost 2 year old (a loose plan). Our 4 year old has been eating large lunches so I've been packing more for him. The 2 year old often finishes parts of his lunch when we get home as I'm trying to make dinner.

  • Monday - Mac and cheese, strawberries, yogurt, veggies from the minestrone, zucchini bread, and cheese
  • Tuesday - Croissants with butter and jam, grapes, peas, chicken or egg, pirate booty, cheese
  • Wednesday - Pasta, kiwi, edamame, yogurt, pumpkin cranberry bread, cheese
  • Thursday - Raisin bread, pear, broccoli, pirate booty, cheese
  • Friday - Hotdogs, corn, banana, yogurt, pumpkin cranberry bread, cheese
