Weekly Meal Plan for 8/20/18

Sorry I never got around to sharing our meal plan last week. It was just a crazy week and I didn't get around to blogging about our meals. I'm sure all two of you were devastated! Here are some of the meals we ate:

Sweet Potato and Sausage Cheesy Egg Bake with fruit
White Chicken Enchiladas with green beans
Spinach Lasagna Roll Ups with salad and garlic bread

This is a pretty easy week; here is what we're eating!

Monday: Baseball Game

Clarence works at Fluor which sponsors our local baseball team. The work departments rotate sitting in the Fluor box and we scored some tickets for tonight! They will have food, so we'll eat dinner there.

Tuesday: Out

I will be leading a MOPS Table Leader Training this night and will just grab some food for me and the kids on the way over there. Clarence is going to Haven's preschool for a parent/teacher meeting and will grab his own dinner and pick up the kids after he's done. Hopefully they will be entertained by a movie on the ipad while I lead the meeting. #parentprobs

Wednesday: Ranch Chicken, Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts. Total for meal: FREE

This was actually a meal we were supposed to eat on Saturday, but we forgot about a friend's birthday party, so we saved it for this week. The chicken has been frozen from the week before and I'm praying the brussel sprouts hold out! 

I'm also taking dinner to a friend of mine who had a baby recently. We're making this Fried Rice recipe and adding diced, cooked chicken.

Thursday: Crock Pot Chicken, Roasted Carrots and Broccoli, Mashed Potatoes. Total for meal:  $6.09

Full chickens were on sale at Aldi for .79 a pound so I grabbed one and will cook it in the crock pot. It's a decent size so there should be plenty leftover to use in other meals. I knew my price was lower this week so I splurged on a Bob Evans refrigerated mashed potato package 🙈I'm splitting the broccoli and carrots with another meal.

Friday: Ground Turkey and Cabbage Stir Fry. Total for meal:  $3.78

Saturday Lunch: Out

We are going hiking with friends and will probably grab lunch afterwards.

Saturday Dinner: Teriyaki Chicken w/ Veggies and Rice. Total for meal: $3.20

Sunday Lunch: Leftovers

Sunday Dinner: Small Group

Total at the store this week: $36.96

Also bought:  mixed veggies, hot dogs, two boxes of fruit pouches, two containers of fruit cups, kefir, strawberries, bread, "healthy" ice cream (like Halo Top) I wanted to try, honey graham bears (the kids have been asking for months, so I finally said yes).
