Menu Planning Week of 12/11

Let me start by saying I totally blew the menu last week.  Last Sunday I got home late from shopping so I brought home rotisserie chicken instead of baking the chicken I had thawed in the fridge.  Then, because we needed to use up said chicken I had my husband bake it so that he and the kids had something to eat during the week.  We skipped the meatloaf and lasagna so it was pretty much a fend for yourself/take out week.

However, this is a new week to start fresh!  We don't really have a lot going on so it should be fairly easy to stick to the menu.  Here's what I'm planning for the week.

Taco Bar
Fend for yourself
Chili with homemade bread - my husband is also taking this to work for a chili dinner
Meatloaf, salad, mashed potatoes, corn, applesauce
Fish (baked Mike, stuffed for the kids and I), rice pilaf, salad, glazed carrots
Dinner Out
Baked Ham dinner to celebrate Michael's birthday

The ham dinner is for Michael's 21st birthday, can you believe my baby is turning 21?  I'm always amazed when I think about how these years have flown by.  It feels like yesterday when we were bringing him home from the hospital.

What's on your menu for the week?

I'll be linking this up to I'm an Organizing Junkie
