WFD this week

[divanerd]

What are you guys planning to make for dinner this week?

[supertrooper1]

I'm going to Costco today, so I'm trying to decide dinners this week. In no particular order:

Rotisserie chicken
Carne asada tacos
Pork tenderloin
Tortellini
Salad

I'm still trying to figure out how to cook for just DS and me without too much wasted food.

[divanerd]

Decided to make
fish, parmesan and herb angel hair pasta with spinach
Meatloaf, sweet potatoes, broccoli and cheese
Ziti with spinach
sloppy joes and grilled corn
Pizza on family night movie night!

Thanks ladies

[campermom]

Homemade pizza and salad
Beef stroganoff in the crockpot and noodles
Turkey hominy chili and honey cornbread
Fish, garlic mashed cauliflower and Brussel sprouts
Enchilada casserole
Chicken broccoli alfredo
One skillet chicken sausage gnocchi

This might go into next week. I didn’t plan on the pizza but H wants that tonight.

[mrsGreeko]

Tonight: brats, tater tots, baked beans fruit

Sunday: teriyaki salmon, rice, roasted asparagus, Asian salad, fruit

Monday: ham and bean soup, cornbread, fruit

Tuesday: homemade Mac and cheese, grilled ham, broccoli, fruit

Wednesday: pork tenderloin, potatoes au gratin (from a box), roasted butternut squash, fruit

Thursday: spaghetti and meatballs, Caesar salad, fruit

[mommyatty]

DH wants chicken spaghetti tonight, so chicken spaghetti it is. I need to cook this week, but I’m kind of at a loss. I’m thinking:

Turkey tacos
Spaghetti with turkey sauce
Lemon pepper chicken with broccoli and rice
Something delivered because it’s volleyball on Thursday
Pizza and salad

[sunbutter]

Cod, rice and green beans with a cherry tomato salsa
Potato and asparagus hash with fried eggs
Tortellini primavera
Slow cooker beef and barley stew
Sweet potato fajitas

[twinmomma]

I meal prepped like crazy today. Feels so good!

Made scrambled eggs with veggies to have for breakfast all week.

Sunday - Pulled pork, coleslaw, cornbread
Monday - Out to dinner with friends
Tuesday - Spaghetti squash with spinach, bacon, and goat cheese (prepped that today)
Wednesday - Chicken sausages and veggies
Thursday - Leftovers
Friday - date night
Saturday - TBD

[notsopicky]

This is what I have on hand:
chicken breast, meatballs, lamb chops, pork loin
brussels, broccoli, salad, green beans
rice, potatoes, pasta

Tomorrow night I am picking up barbeque b/c I'll be at a meeting right by a place we love.

The other nights will be some combination of the above.

I am really over meal planning, shopping, cooking. The fact that I get to do it for the next 50 years blows.

Nope. Just till DD is out of the house. So 11 more years. Then I’m back to grapes, cheese & cereal.

I love cooking. I hate figuring out what the heck to cook! Especially with a-hole kids who don’t eat.

[186momx]

divanerd, I like to cook too. I just wish I didn't have to always come up with what to cook. Now I despise doing dishes and am slowly having DD take over the unloading of the dishwasher.

[soccermama]

Monday: frozen pizza & caesar salad (home late after soccer practice)
Tuesday: grill pork chops, baked potato, steam veggie
Wednesday: "Speedy" chicken paprikash, lightened up
Thursday: not sure
Friday: hopefully go out!!

I'm not feeling very motivated, meal-wise this week.

[covergirl82]

Sunday: Crock pot pork chops, oven roasted potatoes, veggie
Monday: Homemade hamburger helper, mac & cheese (for DD), veggie
Tuesday: Tacos, veggie
Wednesday: breakfast for dinner
Thursday: leftovers or spaghetti and veggie
Friday: TBD
Saturday: out with DS's baseball team after the scrimmage

(I buy big bags of frozen veggies at Costco and pick one each night to make with dinner.)

[sandandsea]

We had
shrimp with butter garlic spaghetti
Panera
Chicken tortilla soup

No idea what else we will have this week.

I haven’t had much of a menu this week, but I made this tonight...

www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/fusilli-alla-caprese-recipe-1938465

I seasoned some chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried basil, and dried oregano, and I grilled them and threw them on top.

Super easy and good! Next time I will double the sauce or halve the pasta. The sauce was good, but not enough of it.
