Another week, another meal plan! Last week the Homemade “Hamburger Helper” was pretty good. I did add some cheese to it, and Jer said that it was way better than the box kind! Which is a success in my book. K thought it was macaroni and cheese. 🙂 It also made pretty good leftovers for lunch.
Also, the Crockpot Pork Chops we made yesterday turned out really well. I didn’t care for the potatoes, but Jer thought they were okay. If I were to make it again (which I probably will) I will just make the pork chops in the crockpot and make mashed potatoes on the side.
Also, I decided that Meatless Monday is much more appealing when I make things to go with our main dish. Having the quesadillas, plus corn bread and cookies for desert this week made for a much better meal. So, I’m going to try to plan side dishes and deserts for Meatless Monday from now on. The only hard part about it is often the type of meatless main dish that we eat is usually served as a side dish to meat, so it’s hard to come up with some other kind of side dish to serve. I’m thinking I’ll often be making bread in the bread machine, because homemade bread is always yummy!
