Happy Monday! I am so happy it is a new week. Last week was crazy busy with a lot of activities and family parties. I knew it was going to be busy so with the last meal plan I included several quick and easy meals so we wouldn’t be tempted to eat out and we did good. We only ate out one night and we had a gift card from Christmas so we didn’t spend a dime. Win-win right?! The next two weeks I included some of my favorite snacks and dinners as well as a few recipes from previous weeks that I have tweeked to make just right. Take a look, get some inspiration, and check back in the coming weeks for the new recipes to be posted!
Breakfast
Eggs and Toast
Cereal/Oatmeal
Smoothies
Pancakes and Eggs
Lunch
Pizza
Chicken Nuggets
Grilled Cheese
Quesadillas
Turkey Wraps
Leftovers
Snacks
Fruit- oranges, apples, bananas, blackberries
Nachos
Soft Pretzels (recipe coming soon)
Jello Valentines Treats

Dinner
Macaroni Bean Soup (recipe I created 2 weeks ago)
Cranberry Chicken Salad (recipe I created to use extra cranberries we have lying around)
Sloppy Joes with Mac’n’Cheese and green beans

Tomato, Spinach and Basil Pasta (New recipe; hope it turns out good)

Teriyaki Chicken with rice and zucchini
Chick-Fil-A Nuggets with Rosemary Fries and green beans

2 months?! Bianca you are a rockstar!!
You are SO on top of things! Can I just hire you to come and create all of these for me? 🙂 I can’t wait for the soft pretzel recipe…..they are my husband’s favorite! Thanks for sharing all of these great (and simple) ideas….makes it feasible to manage during the week and doesn’t seem like it would become a daunting task!
Ah thank you so much Mel! I will totally make meal plans for you if you make my boys’ Halloween costumes 😉 The soft pretzels are really good! I will be posting them probably next week.
This is great meal plan.
