Weekly Dinners

I like to plan my weekly dinners on the weekend for the up coming week.  It makes my grocery shopping much easier, and it eliminates the time old question... "Whats for Dinner?"

We have a dry erase board on our refrigerator door with the days of the week on it, that I write on each weekend.  It's nice for both of us as it gives us a way to see not only whats for dinner this week, but also what kind of leftovers we are looking at for lunches during the week too.

You will also find that in a lot of my weekly dinners there is quite a bit of chicken.  The way we do it is, when it is on sale I stock up and cut it down for us during the week.  By cutting it down I mean I  either split the breasts into strips or split the breasts into thinner breast cutlets.  I freeze the cut up pieces in ziploc bags with whats in it and the date, so we know how long its been in there.  It's less to eat (there is only 2 of us) and it makes the chicken go just that much farther. 

Here is our rundown of dinners this week...


Sunday-Sundays are two things for us, either dinner at the In-Laws or the traditional Sunday Dinner.  Since it is SuperBowl Sunday I was asked to bring a dessert to the party at the in-laws so I'm bringing two.  Cake Cookies and Cake Batter Blondies.
Monday-Benihana (we have a gift certificate that's gonna expire)
Tuesday-Green Chile Mac and Cheese
Wednesday-BBQ Cheddar Ranch Chicken Salad Rollups
Thursday-Fish, Chips, and Hushpuppies

I will post the recipes and pictures along with the original blog as I get to that day, I hope you enjoy my kitchen adventures.  :)
