Hi guys! Wow, I've been a slacker about posting my menu. I meant to do it last week and never got around to it. And this week it's already Saturday and I'm just posting it. I've been posting my menus every week since 2008, but the last few months I've been not as consistent. I'm always thinking about it though.
This summer has been super busy. Time for blogging isn't always there. But I love it when I do blog. It's one of my favorite things to do. Lots of things have been keeping me busy...vacation a few weeks ago, my kids, our house, church stuff, friends, and our garden.
We have a garden that's growing like crazy. I'm going outside and bringing handfuls of food back in with me.
Anyway...I've been trying to figure out what healthy food I'm going to feed my family. More about why in my last post about my "stinking cholesterol". Makes menu planning a bit more of a challenge.
Better late than never, here's my menu for this week.
Monday: we ate white chicken chili
Tuesday: we ate homemade pizza. Pepperoni for the kids. I made chicken caesar veggie pizza. (I instagrammed a picture with more details on how I made it.)
Wednesday: we ate spaghetti
Thursday: we ate fresh whole wheat bread and pb/jam/honey and fruit
Friday: we ate breakfast burritos (I instagrammed about how I healthied mine up)
Saturday: marinated 7up chicken, homemade tortilla chips and salsa, green beans from the garden, fruit
Sunday: orange chicken (my kids have been BEGGING me to make this. Totally not healthy, but really yummy. I'll limit myself to a few pieces and prepare quinoa along with the fluffy, yummy white rice that I normally make.)
What have you been eating for dinner this week? I love summer and not having to plan dinner ahead so in advance like during the school year. Yay for summer!
