I've been winging it since we got back from our camping trip (with the Dutch Oven, and very YUMMY recipes, which gave me back 3 of the 7 lbs I worked hard to lose!) But let me just say, winging it is cruel.
It tempts me...
(no planning!)
It tantalizes me...
(don't worry about it now, you've got a freezer and pantry... SOMETHING will magically come to you)
It seems exciting...
(maybe someone ELSE will appear at our door at dinner time with a piping hot pan of delectable dinner)
But, what really sucks is that it always ends up with me out of ingredients for what I panic-stressed and thought up, so we end up with unhealthy pizza (and happy boys) or eating a dinner of salad (and very unhappy boys) or wait till 8pm and have cereal (and a VERY unhappy husband).
So I'm back on the bandwagon. Again.
TWO WEEK MENU PLAN

DINNERS:
French Dips (roast beef from the deli, heated in au jus sauce from the foil packet, served on hoagie rolls)
Tom's Meatballs (from a friend who is an awesome cook. NOT WW friendly, but should be worth the points!)
Homemade Pizza
tacos/taco salad
BBQ Pork sandwiches (pork shoulder in crockpot with Sweet Baby Ray's cooked, shredded, served on rolls)
Crock Pot Chicken Lasagna (this is going to be taken to a potluck! Hope it's good!)
Patty melts (burgers with grilled onions and mushrooms served on rye. YUM!)
homemade pizza
Chicken Patty Parmesan chicken (Costco Chicken patties, baked, with spaghetti sauce and a sprinkle of cheese... easy and you don't even miss the pasta. 9 ww points!)
Let's hope this will make for a smooth transition into another year serving in AWANA and the new school year...
which is going to be HOMEschool.
For three boys.
By me.
Lord help us!
