Menu Plan - Oct. 16-22

I have been posting these menu plans as part of a six-week challenge.  This is only the fourth one, but I think you get the picture.  So, this is probably the last one I will post.  However,  I will definitely continue to plan - it just makes life a little easier, I think.  I hope you have enjoyed these posts and that it has given you some ideas and/or some new recipes to try!

Sunday -   Make our own pizzas night!

Monday -   The hubby and I are attending a special dinner event.  Kids will likely get something on the run! ;-/

Tuesday -   Shake-N-Bake Chicken, broccoli and cheese, corn

Wednesday -   Dinner at Church

Thursday -   Chicken Cacciatore, salad

Friday -  Pork Chops and Wild Rice  (This is yummy and easy - will definitely try to post the recipe soon!), peas, cinnamon apples

Saturday -  Cookout!!  Burgers, fries (regular & sweet potato)

Tip of the week:  Use your menu planning and grocery listing to organize other things when possible.  For example, all three of my girls take lunchboxes to school and preschool.  When I plan my dinner menu for the week, I also plan their lunch menus.  Then, I can add necessary lunch items to my grocery list and make sure I have them on hand when I am scurrying to get lunches together.  (I have actually gotten my girls to plan their lunch menus for the past couple weeks and it is great - still planned, but I don't have to do it all!)


Again, I hope you have enjoyed these menu posts and maybe even learned something.  If so, I would really appreciate if you would click the link below to "vote" for my website and/or take a second to "like" The Golden Spoons on Facebook (link on the right --->).  Thanks!!!
