After much discussion about the meal plan, I still have not decided whether I am going to switch days. For this week – we are still on a Monday schedule. Thanks to all of you for your input regarding what day of the week to publish the meal plan and what to call it if I switch to Thursdays. Enjoy!

Monday

Breakfast for dinner – we didn’t end up having the eggs and French toast on Sunday’s meal plan because we had the baked mushroom chicken (that was originally on Wednesdays schedule!). It was one of those weeks where we ate all the items I listed on the meal plan but many of the meals were eaten on different nights than planned. That is one of the great things about a meal plan – it is so flexible! So we are having a different version of breakfast for dinner tonight. Instead of French toast and eggs, I am making egg and Boca veggie chicken tortilla roll ups with sautéed mushrooms, onion and green peppers.

Clearly we like chicken with mushrooms and here’s another delicious recipe we love. The sauce is excellent on egg noodles. Bought my chicken breast on sale last week for $1.99/lb. The Campbell’s condensed soups are on sale just about everywhere and a great deal with the coupons found at the link above.

Saturday and Sunday – not sure yet. Between soccer games, bringing youngest to a birthday party and Halloween there will be some frozen pizza in there somewhere!
