Are you ready for menu planning today?

There are just some weeks when it's just not worth the fight of introducing new food or trying to get children to eat food that they have decided to dislike. For those of you who aren't aware, both my husband and I work outside the home. We share many responsibilities in parenting, and although I cook most of the time (because I like to cook!), we tag team many household chores. However, this week I know that I am going to have to bear the brunt of parenting and home duties because of my husband's work schedule. So I'm not ashamed to say that I'm planning on using easy recipes and some convenience foods for much of the week. I tell myself that it's better for my budget than going to Chick-fil-a all week, and with a rather crazy outlook this week at my work, as well, I'm looking for simple this week for dinner.

So here's the plan:

Monday: Spaghetti with Dressed Up Sauce


Tuesday: Chicken Nuggets, Corn Salad
Wednesday: Fish Sticks, Roasted Brocolli, Fruit


Thursday: Frozen Pizza, Fruit
Friday: Crockpot Chili, and Salad before Trick-or-Treating


Saturday: Out to Eat or Leftovers
Sunday: Steak, Roasted Potatoes and Garlicky Sour Cream Dip, Fruit


What are you eating this week?
