Menu Plan Monday 6/28 - 7/4

Wow! This week's sped right by so quickly I'm feeling a little dizzy! Looking forward to the next seven days, there's no respite in sight. We're a month away from school starting, so that means eye exams, hearing exams, shopping for clothes (one in uniforms, the other not), attending Sneak Peek days at two schools (one in elementary school and the other starting middle school), hair cuts, orthodontist visits, grandparent visits, and family fun days galore! Plus, this weekend it's Independence Day -- a favorite holiday of mine.

If you're new here, why not look around? You might just find something you like. I'm in the middle of a week of bare bones, but healthy, recipes, complete with pictures and money-saving tips.

Here's what I hope to make this week:

Monday:
Breakfast: toast with jam & yogurt
Lunch: leftovers
Dinner: Bean Burritos on homemade tortillas

Tuesday:
Breakfast: toast with gravy & oranges
Lunch: egg salad sandwiches & corn puffs
Dinner: Chicken Burgers & lots of veggies

Wednesday:
breakfast & lunch unknown - shopping day, so I will plan as I go
Dinner: Crock Pot Corn Chowder

Thursday:
Breakfast: Peanut Butter & Jelly French Toast
Lunch: unknown, hair appointment
Dinner: Chicken Pizza

Friday:
Breakfast: Baked Donuts & Juice
Lunch: Fried Egg Sandwiches
Dinner: Meatball Sandwiches with Cole Slaw and Beans

Saturday:
Breakfast: whatever's leftover
Lunch & Dinner @ our 4th of July celebration (for some reason, held on the 3rd!)

Sunday:
Breakfast: Strawberry & Blueberry Pancakes
Lunch: Bacon & Blue Cheese Burgers, Grilled Potato Skins, & Fruit Salad
Dinner: Appetizer Spread & Desserts

As for my garden, it's doing well. Look at what we harvested last week:

    I wonder if a characteristic of food fanatics to plan as carefully as this. We do at our house, though only 3-4 days at a time. A very sensible thing to do in my opinion.

    The meal plan sounds wonderful as always. The garden's bounty is great!! I've yet to harvest anything BUT lettuce and herbs. Silly CO and the short growing season LOL :) Enjoy your busy week!

    Your garden goodies look delicious. I sure wish I had a couple of those green peppers and cherry tomatoes right now.

    Baked donuts? That sounds interesting. Do you have a recipe posted yet?

    The PB&J french toast sounds good! My kids are requesting homemade donuts so I need to get started on that. Do you have a recipe you recommend?

    I don't have a recipe I'm comfortable recommending yet, because it's going to be my first try with baked donuts. But I'll be posting it Friday if all goes well. :)
