Melanie Makes Menu Plan 2015 – Week 4

A visual menu of what we’ll be eating for dinner each night this week, including links to each recipe with multiple photos for each dish.

Hooray for a four day weekend!  I had grand plans of getting a lot of things done and I suppose we are getting some things done.  Just not perhaps the things I had on my agenda.  You know, fun things like switching the water that was filling our master bathroom toilet from hot to cold.  Because really, when you’re flipping a house, I suppose hooking hot water to a toilet seems like a good idea?  So happy that my dear husband is a handy type of guy.  

Me?  I’ve manned taking the girls to two different birthday parties and supervised getting a new rug slid under our king sized bed.  Sort of pales in comparison to the water pipe thing, right?

Here’s what we’ll be eating this week: 

Meatless Monday: Potato Corn Chowder.  One of our favorite soups and so easy to pull together.  If you can chop vegetables, you’ve got this one covered.

I’ve selected Monday as a night of the week for our family to eat a meatless meal as it tends to be more budget friendly as well as a friendlier option for the environment. My meat and potato eating husband tends to go along with this idea because I also make him a yummy dessert in addition to his meatless meal. What can I say? I’m nice like that!

Tuesday: Chicken with Roasted Lemons and Green Olives.  An unexpected flavor combination that just works.

Wednesday: Porcupine Meatballs.  A childhood favorite that I absolutely love, especially on a chilly night when served with a baked potato.

Thursday: Slow Cooker Huli Huli Chicken.  No boring chicken recipe, here!  This easy slow cooker meal is awesome served alongside fresh pineapple.

Friday: Taco Frito Flatbread Pizza.  My knock-off of a local pizza place favorite, only in easy to eat flatbread form.
