Menu Plan Monday


So, it's the second week of January. Time for my 2nd meal plan of the year! When we were down in Bowling Green this week I came home with my Granny Lynda's copies of Taste of Home's Simple and Delicious magazines for 2006-2007. I love the recipes so we're trying a couple this week!
Monday 1/7: Three cheese pizza, salad
Tuesday 1/8: Santa Fe chicken, salad, cornbread
2 lbs chicken tenders
2 cans corn
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups salsa
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
Combine all ingredients except chicken. Stir to incorporate spices. Place tenders in the crockpot. Top with salsa mixture. Cook on low 6-7 hours or high 3-4 hours. (recipe from mommy cooks)
Wednesday 1/9: Hawaiian Pork Roast, Festive Rice Medley, steamed broccoli
Thursday 1/10: baked potato soup, rolls
(The recipe for the baked potato soup is kind of involved, but if anyone really wants it let me know and I'll post it!!!)
Friday 1/11: spaghetti, salad, garlic bread
Saturday 1/12: date night!! (using Longhorn gift card from Christmas!!!!)
Sunday 1/13: whatever meal we don't get to end up doing due to going to family, etc.
Well, that's it for this week! I'm looking foward to some good eating! Hope you are too!
