It's time for Menu Plan Monday once again, where I get to share how my last week of planning went, and what I have in store for the coming week. I have to admit, this is only my fourth week of doing this, and I am already running out of steam. I never realized how small my recipe box is and can't believe I am starting to have trouble coming up with new ideas. Sad, I know, but fortunately my family never really complains. Maybe they will be really happy now with some new creativity at the dinner table!
Last week I pretty much stuck to my menu plan. Once again I shuffled meal days, but the meals themselves mostly went according to the plan. I did have to use chicken in one recipe instead of pork because I was out. On Saturday I got busy going through ads, so my husband just went and got a pizza from Papa Murphy's, my old standby. There were no other major changes.
After checking out a few other plans at I'm an Organization Junkie for inspiration, here's what we will be eating this week:
Monday: Chicken noodle soup with homemade egg noodles, rolls. I make this a lot, but it's a family favorite.
Tuesday: Sloppy Joes, baked fries, green salad.
Wednesday: Tuna Casserole, peas, Pillsbury bread sticks.
Thursday: Baked pork chops with rice in cream of mushroom soup, mixed veggies.
Friday: Broccoli cheddar quiche, and ?
Saturday: Farmhouse chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans.
Sunday: Going to Seattle Children's Museum, so dinner out.

Congratulations with 4 weeks worth of planning! I find it truly helps me stay organized, as far as the kitchen is concerned! I have gotten so many intersting ideas from other people's menus that I had to start a binder of the stuff that I want to try. I have another one for the "keepers."
