MPM



Well, it is that time again. Having just recently gotten back into menu planning, I have no idea how we made it without it! Especially in the summer. This summer has been the craziest of all summers it seems. I thought maybe it was just us that felt that way, but I've heard a lot of other families say the same. What is it?! Anyway, here is our menu plan for this week:

Monday: Beef in Gravy, Hawaiin Dinner Rolls (we will omit the coconut..DD hates it!), and carrots.

Tuesday: Herbed Pork Medallions, vinaigerette vegtables

Wednesday: Bruschetta Chicken and Salad

Thursday: Hamburgers with Mushroom Gravy, mashed potatoes, pepper pea salad

Friday: Chilli Sauce Chicken, black bean salad, Cream Cheese Pineapple pie

Saturday: Leftovers

Sunday: Pasta Carbonara (we have yet to make this dish..not really sure why!)

AND...Amazingly enough, I found myself actually making a breakfast for my family this past week. That NEVER happens...for it to have happened 2 times last week is an absolute miracle!! But, I enjoyed it and so did they. I'm not a big breakfast person, and the smell of bacon/sausage in the morning makes me a bit nauseous. This is why generally my cooking doesn't venture to the breakfast side of things. But...I found a baked oatmeal recipe my family loves! If anyone has anymore breakfast recipes to share...pass 'em on. This is my new adventure!

Check out my blog...I've been attempting to actually cook breakfast and made great Breakfast Cookies and Baked Oatmeal and Whole wheat pancakes. All the links are in past MPMs. (I don't post a ton so there aren't a lot to weed through!) HTH!

I just found your blog from MPM. I need to try the Hawaiian rolls-thanks for the link! The baked oatmeal looks good too.
