I'm a little late with the meal plan this week, but better late than never, right!So last week the Curried Lentils and Rice were actually pretty good. Especially considering I only had about half the amount of curry powder called for. Even K had a few good spoonfuls, and normally she is very picky! I think it could be a 'make it again' meal!This week we're going to do Meatless Monday on Wednesday because we are bringing dinner to friends, and she is a vegetarian, that just recently had a baby. … [Read more...]

We had a great time on vacation last week - it went by too fast!! We have to get back in the swing of things though, luckily we have a pretty easy week this week as far as meals go. So far we're really striking out with Meatless Mondays. Most of the meals I have made are either just okay, or really not very good. I've only found one meatless recipe so far that we both enjoy, but Jer said it would be even better with chicken. :) We're still going to stick with it though, and Jer has been such … [Read more...]

This week my sister-in-law and nieces are in town visiting from Oregon, so we'll want to spend as much time as possible with them. I'm planning meals so we will have something to eat if we are home, but we might not stick to the plan to closely this week.We're still trying to use up stuff from our pantry and freezer - just trying to keep our grocery bill as low as possible right now.The BBQ Chicken Pizza from last week was a big hit! We had friends over for dinner and everyone enjoyed it. I … [Read more...]

In June, I decided once a week we should try eating a vegetarian meal for dinner instead of eating meat as the main dish, which is our typical dinner. And just to make it a little more fun, I chose to have our vegetarian meals on Monday so that we could call it Meatless Monday.There basically two reasons I thought this would be a good idea for us to try.It is frugal. Meat is expensive. Beans, veggies, eggs, and other things that make for good vegetarian meals are cheap. I thought it would be … [Read more...]

I'm back to Meal Planning after the new baby. We were so blessed to receive meals for about 3 weeks after Brenden was born, and we've just been kind of taking it day by day since then, but now it's time to get back in the habit of having our meals for the week planned out. It makes life so much easier - just one less thing to have to worry about and spend time figuring out during the week. I love knowing what we're going to eat for dinner each night, and being able to prepare as much as I can … [Read more...]

I'm having a hard time being motivated to plan meals this week. My baby boy is due on Friday, and I am hoping and praying that he makes his entrance into the world before then, but I'm not exactly counting on it, as my daughter was a week late. Anyway, I'm don't have the energy to think about planning and cooking this week. I'm going to try to use the crockpot and make easy, no fuss meals this week. We'll see how it goes.Oh, and I'm definitely not planning breakfasts and lunches like I … [Read more...]

We're counting down to the arrival of Baby Boy McClements! Just two short weeks 'til my due date! I want to make sure we have food in the fridge and meals planned so we don't go hungry when we come home from the hospital.Also, Jer was not so excited about Meatless Monday last week (it wasn't a shared decision, I just kind of threw it at him). :) Sooo, I'm going to have to be creative with my meatless dishes to try to keep him happy. This week he will be at the Young Life golf outing on … [Read more...]

My first Meal Plan Monday from the new house!It has been great getting back in the groove of cooking dinner and planning meals for the week.This week we are starting Meatless Mondays. Not only are vegetarian meals generally much cheaper (and better for you) than eating meat, but raising livestock is one of the largest producers of greenhouse gases. So, cutting back on your meat intake one day a week is good for your wallet and the environment!Meatless Monday - Vegetarian QuesadillasTuesday - … [Read more...]
