Menu Plan Monday: Week of 6/11/18

by - 6/11/2018 08:05:00 AM

Happy Monday! It’s officially countdown time until the end of school we have a little under two weeks left. I have so many mixed emotions about this. Kinda sad that this might be Michael’s last year having his summer free. Sports camp and possibly working and having a social life. I can imagine his summer is going to start to get really busy going forward.
The weather has been wacky in Connecticut. For instance, it was around 80’degrees. However, it was breezy. I know I shouldn’t complain because it’s better than snow...
Last week I tried a yummy homemade jerk chicken recipe. I’m going to try and recreate the recipe and actually take note of the seasoning measurements and not seasoning to taste. The family loved the recipe. I actually made it in the crockpot. The chicken was so tender and flavorful. Per the family. It was nice to create something different and not the same ole same meals. Plus, I love that I was able to create the meal in the crockpot, in the oven or even on the grill. If you don’t own a crockpot. I highly suggest investing in one. It’s such a life saver, especially during the warmer months. Also, I would like to get back into freezer cooking. Freezer cooking used to really come in handy when I would already have the meat marinaded in advance and all I would have to do is thaw it out and put it in the oven, grill or crockpot. As you can see, so many mixed emotions and a lot to add to my to-do list.

 Anywho, how was your weekend?

    Ziti with garlic bread is one of my all time favorite meals. I grew up in a big Italian family so we had that A LOT!

    Now, I am hungry and I loved seeing the list as it has given me new ideals for meals in our home. And I like the ideal of setting up a weekly menu and should start doing that as it would save me time.

    Baked ziti is one of my favorites. I think it's a great idea to plan out a menu for the entire week in advance.

    That baked ziti must be a family favorite as I see it listed almost every week. We have a couple of favorite dishes that rotate frequently as well.

    Wow! This is really dope. I bet your family loves you! During the week I'm eating leftovers are preparing quick meals. However, I do realize that if I prepare in advance. The menu could very well be quick meals. Thanks for sharing.
