Menu Plan Monday: Second Week of All*You Grocery Challenge

Photobucket
Hurray, it's the second week of the All*You Grocery Challenge. The first week went really well, and I had fun with it, using mostly items from my stockpile. We've plowed through most all of our fresh produce, so I will be buying lots this week.

Here is my menu plan for the week, and I decided to have an alternate meal in the plan. This is handy when things don't work out with your Plan A, like getting home later than usual from an appointment or such.


Monday
w/ Garden Tomatoes, Cilantro, & Green Onions
Small Spring Mix Salad
Fresh Fruit

Tuesday
Chicken Parmesan made w/Crispy Chicken
Pasta
Steamed Broccoli & Carrots

Wednesday
Pan-Fried Pork Chops
(simple, yet one of my husbad's favorites)
Rice
Field Peas & Snaps
Apples & Walnuts in Vanilla Yogurt w/Cinnamon

Thursday
Quesadillas w/ Homemade Tortillas
Fruit Salad

Friday
w/ Garden Bell Peppers, Garden Banana Peppers,
Ham, Pepperoni, Green Onions, & Pineapple Toppings

Saturday
Grilled New York Strip Steak
Homefries

Sunday
Grilled Chicken
Rotini
Spring Mix Salad
Fresh Fruit
Dessert: Ice Cream Sundaes

Alternate
Eggs, Grits, Bacon, Homemade Bread

  1. I love the idea of an alternate meal! My husband doesn't like meat from the microwave, so if I forget to thaw the meat ahead of time, I'm up a creek!

  2. This may be a silly question but how do you home-make a tortilla? That sounds like a fun thing to try! :)

  3. Hi Becca, Thanks for stopping by! If you click on the link where "homemade tortillas" is highlighted, you will go to an earlier post about how to do it. You can also find it in the "Cooking" topics on the left.
