Menu Plan Monday


Are you ready for the start of school this week?  I'm not.  We start on Wednesday, so I still have a couple of days to plan.  I have not done much organizing but have been on the phone with doctors getting immunization records and other necessitites ready.  Now I need to get home base ready.  With planning for school, I was totally uninspired today.  Then my mom gave me the latest copy of Woman's Day Magazine.  It was either the yummy pictures or the two glasses of wine....or both combined...but now I am totally inspired and have a menu for the week.  Thanks mom!  I am participating in Organizing Junkie's Menu Plan Monday so don't forget to check out her page for lots of inspiration from other bloggers!

Monday:  Mustard Pork Chops with Smashed Potatoes and Cheese
Tuesday:  Quick Sausage, White Bean and Spinach Stew
Wednesday:  Vegetable and Three-Cheese Stuffed Shells
Thursday:  Spanish Style Tortilla with Salami and Potatoes
Friday:  Slow Cooker Chicken Burritos

Speaking of school and food.  How about school lunches?  Do you pack or let your kids buy?  I usually pack and let my son pick one day he can buy his lunch.  That usually ends up being pizza day.  Woman's Day Magazine has a great article on packing school lunches and making them interesting.  Check it out at How to Pack a Better School Lunch.  Happy cooking!
