Menu Plan Monday: 01/27/2014

With snow and cold temperatures here to stay, all I want to do is stay bundled up in a blanket with hot soup, bread, and hot cocoa.  Unfortunately Joe won't appreciate the menu very much, and nothing would get done around the house either.  So, I made a meal plan of other comfort-style foods that actually use up items we have in our pantries and freezers.  This is the last week of the official pantry challenge, but we will be continuing to use things up through February so we can defrost our chest freezer.  We're about half way there, so a few more weeks should mostly do it.  Then I can start stocking it with post-baby meals, YEAH!  Only 11 more weeks to go, and we get to meet baby Rogers; can you tell we are just a little excited?  Here's what's on the menu this week...

Breakfasts: Banana Crumb Bread (*new recipe), Toast with Butter and Jam, Yogurt with Granola, Special K or Fruit and Grain Bars, Waffles/Bagels

Lunches: Leftovers, Turkey Salad/Grilled Cheese/PB and J Sandwiches, Quesadillas

Dinners: All served with Vegetable or Salad
Sunday - Bacon Cheese Burgers with Baked Onion Rings
Monday - Turkey, (Frozen Leftover) Dressing, Mashed Potatoes, and Gravy
Tuesday - Beef Stew Meat in Mushroom Gravy over Rice
Wednesday - Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas with Mexican Rice
Thursday - Possible working at Joe's Grandfather's - Chili's, if not Fried Pork chops with Buttered Egg Noodles
Friday - Flea Market Set-up day - Leftover Buffet/Homemade Pizza/Hotdogs with Mac and Cheese, or something simple
