As usual on Sunday nights, my husband and I get the kids in bed, before crashing side-by-side on the couch. We watch an episode from whatever series we’re currently digging. Right now? BBC’s Call the Midwife (Amazon). Jenny Lee is fine and everything, but I seriously adore Chummy. Are you hooked on this show yet? You should be.
Anywho, while we watch our show, my husband calls out random menu ideas that sound good to him. I attach them to a day, and we call it a night. We make a good team. Menu planning isn’t difficult as long as you figure out a system that works for you. Oh, and a bowl of ice cream doesn’t hurt, either.
Here’s what’s for dinner at my house this week:
Monday — Spaghetti (using Roasted Marinara Sauce) & Meatballs, No-Knead Bread, Roasted Broccoli
Tuesday — Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos, Chips with Salsa & Guacamole
Wednesday — Pizza, green salads, apple slices
Thursday — Breaded Sole, baked potatoes, kale salad
Friday — Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, apple slices
Saturday — Dinner with Friends
Sunday — Dinner Out
