Menu Plan Monday


We had beautiful weather this last week.  I was able to spend hours in the garden and get it going along with burning my back.  This is my first year gardening, but I have a friend helping me so it's going well.  The weather this week calls for rain, which will be nice, my house has been neglected.
I have a few newish things I'm trying this week, but nothing is to hard or labor intensive.  Remember to click on the pictures to be brought to the recipe via my pinterest pins.

Menu Plan Monday


Well, I don't think I did one meal on my plan last week.  I ended up being so busy working outside because we had such wonderful weather and my folks were here for the week.  I used my stock of freezer meals and did some basic BBQ.  I was happy I didn't have to go to the store for anything extra.
The forecast is clear and sunny this week and so I'll keep my plan simple as I hope to get to to the garden and work.  Other than my order of produce from Crazy Peppers and basic milk, I don't plan on shopping this week.

MONDAY
Chicken and Rice Bake from the freezer
with Salad

TUESDAY
Spaghetti
Sauce from the freezer with meat added

WEDNESDAY
Chicken, Kale and Rice Soup

THURSDAY

A Simple week without any nice pictures or links.  But hopefully my garden will be planted so the simple meals are needed.

Menu Plan Monday

More goal this week is to spend a little as possible aside from my bulk organic order will be at the end of this week as well as my organic produce, from Crazy Peppers.  So other than those two things I'm staying away from the stores!
(be sure to click on the pictures to follow them to the original recipe)
I made the Pear Muffins and they were very good and easy.  We always have some organic pears around as my boy loves them so this was a fantastic way to change them up
