June 22, 2015 By Becca Leave a Comment

Hey everyone, welcome back to another Menu Plan Monday! I hope you had a great week last week. The weather has been pretty hot (for us, anyway) so we’ve been eating a lot of sandwiches for supper lately. Even though the sandwiches are cooked, or at least part of them are, it’s not enough to heat the whole house up.

Monday ~ Fried Bologna Sandwiches with Chips

Tuesday ~ Fried Chicken with Fried Squash (fresh from the garden!)

Wednesday ~ Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Thursday ~ Potato/Hamburger Hash with Spinach

Friday ~ Fried Bologna Sandwiches

Saturday ~ Stir-Fry with Jasmine Rice

Sunday ~ Grilled Hamburgers

As you can see, it’s a pretty simple supper week this week. If you’re posting your menu, I’d love for you to link up with me this week so we can all see! I would love for you to link back to me in your post as well.

Hello, and welcome to this week’s Menu Monday! Last week was a hot and somewhat rainy week here in TN. Lucas’ team finished up the t-ball tournaments on Saturday. I was told that their team came in 3rd for the regular season. It was so fun watching the kids play!

You’ll notice soup beans are on the menu again this week. That’s because I was still sick last Monday and didn’t fix any beans that day. Here’s my menu plan for the week!

Monday ~ Mac & Cheese

Tuesday ~ Soup Beans w/corn bread

Wednesday ~ Fried Chicken

Thursday ~ Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Friday ~ Bacon-Ranch Meatloaf

Saturday ~ Grilled Hamburgers and Chicken

Sunday ~ Eating at in-laws’

As always, I’m using a couple of recipes from the $5 Dollar Menu Plan. The 2 recipes this week are new to us, but sound so delicious! The Cumin Pork Roast from last week was a hit. It’s great eaten with tortilla chips. You can sign up and get a 14-day free trial without giving any credit card information.

Weekly Menu Plan and Linkup 6/8-6/15/2015

Hello again! I created our meal plan last week for this week. When I come up with meals for our suppers, I tend to use a combination of meals that our family favorites along with new ideas from the $5 Dollar Meal Plan, and many of Erin’s recipes end up as new family favorites! The Mexican Stack-Es from last week were a hit, and I’ll definitely be making them again. I love the 4-week free trial that’s available, and since you don’t have to give your credit card information, it’s a win-win situation. I’m so glad I signed up last year!

So, after I had already written our meal plan down in my planner, I got sick. I was sick all.weekend.long. Blah! I’m going to list our meals exactly as I planned them since I have them written down this way, but I’ve changed meals around to accommodate my illness. I am not eating soup beans when I’m already sick to my stomach. Nope. So, here we go!

Monday ~ Soup Beans w/Cornbread

Tuesday ~ Manwich Roast Sandwiches

Wednesday ~ Chicken Fajitas

Thursday ~ Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons

Friday ~ Skillet Nachos

Saturday ~ Fried Chicken

Sunday ~ Cumin Pork Roast w/ Black Beans

I had actually planned to make the pork roast last Saturday, but hubby and I had a date planned for that day, and we were actually gone most of the day. I was already feeling puny then and knew that black beans and anything spicy would be a bad idea, so I nixed it that day and decided to move it to this week since I had the roast already.

It took me forever to make soup beans that my husband would actually eat. We’ve been married for 17.5 years, and I thought I’d never get it down, but I did! I had always used ham bone left over from the country hams we get, plus salt and sometimes onions. Well, last year I found a new-to-me seasoning at the store that I wanted to try. One day I got the idea to make soup beans and add this seasoning to them. Well, my husband liked them! I almost said “love,” but I don’t think he’ll ever actually love soup beans. He did say that they were good, though. The seasoning is called Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning. I like to use it pretty often. It’s great for bland meats like pork, and also for making potato wedges.
