Meal planning for 5/4-5/10.
Sunday, 5/4. We did Cinco de Mayo a day early with our traditional "Mexi-night" of chicken and cheese quesadillas for the kids, black bean and rice burritos for the adults and chips and slices of cucumbers on the side for everyone.
Monday, 5/5. Broccoli and chicken pasta. It's a favorite of Bubba's. I usually match this meal with the "Mexi-night" since I can split a package of four chicken breasts between the two meals.
Tuesday, 5/6. Marinated steak with rice and corn on the cob. The kids will be happy with the corn, for sure.
Wednesday, 5/7. Kids' Choice Night.
Thursday, 5/8. I'll be out of town at a training all day Thursday and half day Friday, so RD is on his own for dinner!
Friday, 5/9. It's Bubba's birthday! To celebrate, his Auntie V is coming up from Portland and we'll take everyone out to dinner; wherever he wants to go, except McDonalds.
Saturday, 5/10. Chicken with tomatoes and thyme, served with whole grain rice and veggies. This is a recipe from Real Simple magazine that you can prepare, freeze and then pull it out when you need it. Nothing fancy, but it makes pulling together dinner pretty easy.
