I know this is a little late considering it is already the 8th of the month. This is our menu plan for February. I borrowed a lot of the menu plan from
www.lifeasmom.com because I had most of the items already in my freezer from sales that I had stocked up on. I have been eating these meals in now particular order. It is best for me to just have a list of about 28-30 dishes to chose from. The only thing that I do consistantly is serve some kind of sandwich meal on Wednesday's because we have prayer meeting and I want to keep clean up as simple as possible. It works! Also, for breakfast we usually have hot cereal (grits, steel-cut oat, rice, and mixed grains) cooked overnight in the crock pot and grapes or bananas. For lunch, I serve leftovers from the previous night's meal. Here is my plan:
- Chicken taco salad
- Jambalaya, spinach salad, biscuits
- Beans and rice, sweet potato muffins
- Grilled cheese and kielbasa with onion sandwiches
- Chicken or pork chimichangas, banana nut muffins,
- Pasta with red sauce, salad, focaccia
- Chili and cornbread
- Asian noodle salad (from Pioneer Woman), dinner rolls
- Paella with shrimp and chicken, salad
- Chicken Gyros and coleslaw
- Beans and rice, cornbread
- Pork chops with potatoes, carrots, green beans
- Beef chimichangas, brown sugar muffins, oven roasted potatoes
- chicken parmesan, pasta, broccoli, and dinner rolls
- Carnitas soft tacos, coleslaw or mexican rice

All bread that is included in this menu plan is homemade. I will share a few recipes throughout the week. It would be wonderful to see your menu plan, too. I always love to read others and to try new recipes. I also plan on sharing my journey to becoming frugal and the books that influenced me the most.
