Menu Plan Monday!

The menu for the week is based around what's in the freezer, which at this point isn't much, but I have decided to continue the pantry challenge as long as possible into February. We are going to visit with friends on Thursday and have dinner at their house (I just have to bring dessert)! So it should turn out to be a very nice week, especially with the new recipes I am trying...

Breakfasts: Homemade Banana Bread (Joe doesn't like nuts in it), Cream of Wheat, Cold Cereals, Juice & Fruit, Tuesday = FREE Grand Slam @ Denny's from 6am-2pm!

Lunches: Leftovers, Ham and Cheese Sandwiches on Homemade Bread, &/or Salad with Homemade Ranch Dressing

Dinners:
Sunday - Buffalo Wings and Cheesy Tortilla chips with Homemade Guacamole
Monday - Leftover Buffet
Tuesday - Zuppa Tuscana Soup (recipe Here) with Homemade Bread!
Wednesday - Steak Fajitas with a Garden Salad & Homemade Ranch Dressing
Thursday - Dinner with Melinda & Joel!!!
Friday - Orange Chicken with Jasmine Rice & maybe Salad
