Menu Plan Monday – October 17

Menu Plan Monday

I’ve overplanned myself this week. Keith will be out of town over the weekend and Brooke and I have Fall Festival at her daycare Friday night so I most likely will not need all of these meals. Knowing my tendencies, I was better off to have too much planned though.

Mini-Meatloaf (from the freezer)
Sausage & Peppers (red peppers are on sale this week!)
Mac n’ Cheese (a Brooke request)
Cheesy Tortellini Casserole**
Sloppy Joes (crock pot)
Tuna Twist Casserole**
Tex-Mex Chicken Soup**

**Meals from my e-mealz subscription

What’s your strategy for getting dinner on the table at night? Do you plan weekly, two weeks at a time or monthly? Do you fly by the seat of your pants? Or do you know the phone number to every take-out place in a 5-mile radius by heart?
