Weekly Meal Plan

Just thought I'd share our weekly meal plan for this week along with some of my ideas for freezing meals in preparation of bringing our sweet baby boy home...

Monday: Lemon Pepper Chicken & Rice
(I found a great mix of wild rice, brown rice, and basmati rice in the bulk food section of the grocery store and will add some of Wildtree's Cilantro Lime Rice blend to it.)

Tuesday: Chuck Roast Sandwiches (Crock Pot)
*make extra to freeze*
(I found a really easy recipe online - 1 chuck roast, 1 packet onion soup mix, and water - YUM!)

Wednesday: Macaroni & Cheese and PB&J Sandwiches
(Wednesday's are Awana nights, so it's nice to have something quick and easy to eat before we rush out the door for church. Plus, I always crave Macaroni & Cheese when I'm pregnant.  Oh, and since I can't eat dairy foods while pregnant without getting sick, I just make it with Lactose-free milk.)

Thursday: Oven Baked Orange Chicken  with Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans
*make extra to freeze*

Friday: Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Rice and Cooked Carrots
*freeze extra chicken salad*

Saturday: Green Bean Casserole and Banana Bread
(We're celebrating Thanksgiving in October with my mom's family - it's tradition.)

Sunday: Leftovers
