What's for supper this week?

Do you plan out your meals for the week? I like to, especially if I know we have somewhere to be that evening. I have several recipes that I make frequently and like to try out new dishes. Share your recipes if you have one! It works out so much better to have a plan for our meals. I remember before Caleb was born, before we moved to this town, JMP and I were both working. It was easy to run up to the local cafe and eat. We do miss that. They had delicious chocolate pie too! Making a plan saves money though!

Monday we had spaghetti. I needed something that I could prepare quickly and have ready before JMP had to leave for the sleep study.

Tonight I'm using the leftover sauce and hamburger meat to make Biscuit Pizza Bake. We have a picture at 6:20 for the new church directory.

Wednesday we'll go to church and I'm not positive at this moment what we'll have yet! Maybe pork chops.

Thursday JMP comes home and turns around and goes back to class so I like to have everything on the table (or close to it) when he comes in the door. Usually this means leftovers. I have a couple back-ups in case we don't have leftovers from the week, like little tubs of brisket (another sale item I found last week at H E B).

Friday's we most always go out to eat.

Saturday is a day I just figure out as we go! Sometimes we eat out or JMP will fix something on the grill. I found a recipe for hobo packs and want him to cook those for us sometime.

I made Hamburger Helper tonight. I haven't had any time to plan ahead. If you need a delicious chocolate chip cookie recipe for this week, I've got one for ya!

I usually don't plan ahead, but it really works out a lot better when I do. First of all, it helps me to know what I need to buy and it helps me not to buy too much at the grocery store.

That's a great system that you have! I plan my lunches, taking them to work. If I have class, I eat lunch at home and then grab a chicken sandwhich right before class so that I can last until 11pm! lol

I like your system! I'm sure I'll do that too when I have my own family.
