I glanced at the clock right before I started writing this week's menu plan post. Of course, it's much later than I thought it was... and later than I wanted to start writing.
The truth is, I could have started writing earlier. But I filled my daylight hours with other things.
Like laundry. And cooking. And finally watering my one remaining living plant.
I did some decluttering and finished reading the book I started reading last month. I joined the kids for a round of dominoes and made time for a hobby that brings me peace.
While sharing our menu plans each week is important to me... those other things that took my attention today? They were more important.
Before I grab that last load of laundry from the dryer, here's our menu plan for this week. Give it a read if you're curious!
A Week of Dinners: January 15 - January 21
- Sunday: Spaghetti and Basic Baked Meatballs with Marinara Sauce and Simple Green Salad
- Monday: Tortellini Soup with Italian Sausage
- Tuesday: BLT Tacos and Tater Tots
- Wednesday: Leftovers
- Thursday: Breaded Chicken Tenders with Smashed Red Potatoes and Creamed Spinach
- Friday: White Pizza with Fresh Arugula and Prosciutto (for the adults) and Margherita Pizza (for the kids)
- Saturday: Chinese Take-Out (or dinner at my sister's)
I don't plan on doing too much cooking ahead of time this week. I might make the bacon the night before I need it, but that will all depend on how agreeable the kids are being with their after-school responsibilities.
What do you have planned for dinner at your house this week?
