Menu Plan Monday Feb 3

I had some epic crock pot failures last week.  OK, so maybe they weren’t epic, but I did have to make a whole new dinner one night.

This week I will not use my crock pot.  I am tempted….

I think Baby Sid is going through a growth spurt.  He is eating nonstop!

After eating, continuously munching, at my sisters all day on Sunday he came home and ate a huge dinner.  More than his brother.

Also on Thursday night last week, I had to help my mom pick up her new floors.  It took too long and my sister got my boys from the sitter and made them dinner.  Baby Sid came home and ate dinner again.

Tue: One Pot Chicken Alfredo with garlic bread

Wed: Lowcountry Smothered Pork Chops with Roasted Red Potatoes

Typically I like to share some food related pictures with my meal plan.  It’s just the way I am.

Menu Plan Monday Jan 20

 

Do you like spaghetti?  Do you have an Old Spaghetti Factory?

The Old Spaghetti Factory

If you do, they are celebrating their 45th anniversary.  In honor of 45 years, they have specific dinners for only 4 or 5 bucks!  Kids meals are $3.

What a steal!  But it is only good the 20th and the 21st of Jan.

So I will not be cooking tonight, we are going to the Old Spaghetti Factory.

Every year, well almost every year, we have celebrated my birthday there.  So it holds a special place in my heart.

So the rest of the week looks like a crock pot kinda week…

 

Menu Plan 1/20-1/26

Mon: Dinner out

Tue:  Crock Pot Chicken & Brown Rice

Wed: Slow Cooker Ravioli Lasagna 

Thr: Crock Pot Peppercorn Steak and Potatoes 

Fri: Left Overs

Sat: Kitchen is closed

Sun: Sage Pork Chops with Lemon Risotto (Carry over from last week, because I didn’t end up cooking)

Happy Cooking
