I knowing know I'm way behind!!!! It's already Wednesday!
Here's the run down of what's already happened due to my delay!
Mon- pizza
Tuesday- chicken salad after a trip to bjs
Wed- I was going to make chicken on Monday, but didn't have a plan so I defrosted chicken and didn't use it...by now it's probably no good, so I've wasted it, I am currently defrosting another package for tonight! This is exactly why I need to do this and stick to it!
Thurs- ? Macaroni and meatballs
Fri- chicken salad again, because I don't want to think about this again this week! Plus we've been on quite a salad kick later, and I'm not complaining!
Sat- maybe something fancier if I have the time, I think I have a ham in the freezer?
Better luck next week I guess?

Menu plan week of 9/16
Mon - pizza to get my self together for school tomorrow and the rest of the week
Tues - turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes, stuffing
Wed - chicken salad to use up lettuce from Sunday
Thurs - lemon chicken with white rice
Fri - leftovers or a new vegetarian meal?
Sat - something hearty, and on sale maybe, pot roast?
Simple this week since I picked up a bunch of meat on sale today, makes thing super easy to plan and not a lot of prep work.

Menu plan revamp!
Im Going to try a few different things this coming week.
First, one meatless meal a week, eventually leading up to a full week without meat, just to detox the arteries a bit! Which may be very difficult for me, since my husband is a meat addict? I think I will commit mondays to meatless Mondays. Tuesdays are to remain a leftover meal day, I am still without a proper kitchen and for this I' m determined to order pizza once a week, which is a meatless meal for him, but not for me! but I can easily change that. So that's three nights a week done!
Next I am going to try to plan outside just dinners. I will have to start packing my sons lunches for school next week so I will need to make sure he's getting some variety, which will help to have more variety in my fridge too.
I also will PLAN one big breakfast a week, we eat so crappy for breakfast simply because, well, I hate mornings, I hate cooking in the morning, and I LOVE cereal. My husband should thoroughly enjoy this as long as its on a weekend when he can enjoy it. I would like to make some items that can be frozen and used throughout the week for quick breakfast as well. Wish me luck.
And lastly I NEED to eat more fruit and vegetables, I have a habit of buying them for my kids (mostly organic) and not eating any myself in fear that I won't have them for them! That needs to change.
Ok so there are my new goals stay tuned for the new weeks menus to follow?

Menu plan week of 9/9
My son starts school tomorrow, so I'd like to do something special, but haven't had the time to think about it....?
So for tonight ...
Mon - pizza!! Along with ironing, and getting ready for pictures and a rush out the door in the morning!
Tues - something ending with a cupcake? Maybe pancakes for dinner, that he would love!
Wed - it's supposed to be HOT so something light, chicken salad maybe?
Thurs - leftovers before they go bad.
Fri - cooler temps so maybe a hearty meatloaf.
Sat - pasta with pesto (gotta use that up too before it is no good, and I have some fresh tomatoes that should be ripe by then! ) with chicken.
