Menu Plan Monday Oct 6 - Oct 12 2008


Hi all, I just started a diet program to help get rid of 65 excess pounds that have crept on over the past 5 years, but I still have to feed a family of 5. So I still need to meal plan and I love to cook. I wanted my family's meals to closely resemble my diet meals. I also wanted to improve and make healthier versions of family favorites.



It has been awhile since I posted a Menu Plan Monday. I have been winging it the past couple of weeks however, I needed to get back on track. I do so much better when I plan. Here is the plan for this week with recipe links.

Sunday
Broccoli Spears

Monday
Using leftover pork from Sunday to make

Tuesday
Pizza Night

Wednesday
Herb roasted potatoes
Green Beans
Biscuits

Thursday
Mashed Potatoes
Peas

Friday
Baked Burritos (Using crumbled left over meatloaf instead of starting with raw ground beef. I will add Mexican spices such as chili powder and cumin to the meat.)
Mexican Rice

Saturday

Sunday
Stuffing
Tossed Salad
Corn
Carrots
