Our Meal Plan: 1/12-1/18


If you are looking for some of the strategies that help us decide what to eat every week, make sure you check out our Meal Tip Series!

Oops! I make my grocery list and meal plan for the week on Friday/Saturday mornings. I seemed to have left one really important ingredient off my list this week: chicken. This afternoon, I went to the refrigerator to pull out the chicken for our meal tonight, and...it wasn't there. So I quickly rearranged my list, and now I have a gap day. We have plenty of food to make up for my missing dinner, but I don't know what we will eat yet.

So see? Sometimes planning doesn't always work! :)

Sunday: Leftovers
Monday: Mini Chicken Pot Pies, Salad (Thank goodness I had pre-cooked, diced chicken in the freezer!)
Tuesday: Sandwiches (Mom has Bible study)
Wednesday: Gap Night (Hmm...)
Thursday: Pumpkin Pancakes, Scrambled Eggs, Bacon
Friday: Taco Salad
Saturday: Leftovers

What is on your menu this week? Leave me some inspiration!

  1. It all sounds yummy! I have a Mediterranean Chicken dish on tap for tonight. Last week was comfort food all the way with Chicken and Dumplings, Mac and Cheese, Toscana Soup and Ham and Beans!!!

  2. Shoot, I tried to comment and it disappeared! Anyway, I did the same thing the other day. I was making chicken pot pie, got all the stuff out and no chicken! So I had to walk up town - that only takes 3 mins - and buy some! I also have Bible study night and two karate nights, it's hard to cook then. And I checked out your mini pot pies, they're adorable!

  3. I hate when that happens and I'm left racking my brain to replace a meal and it always ends up being a meal I really wanted. lol Life right.

    Taco salad sounds so good right now. I wonder if I could talk the hubby out of Frito Pie and into it instead.

  4. Those mini pot pies sound delicious. We're having chicken alfredo and a taco bake this week among other things I haven't planned yet. I'm sure you'll come up with something delicious for tomorrow's dinner.
