This whole meal planning thing is going great. This is my third one now. There are a couple of small things that I need for this week (fruits, vegetables, milk, bread, etc).

Even on the days that I had classes until 10pm, I still managed to make dinner for us. This is definitely an improvement over last semester for us! And a lot of you emailed and commented asking for my Teriyaki Chicken recipe. I plan on posting that soon, no worries!

Here’s what I plan on making as our main course for each dinner:

  • Monday – Chicken Alfredo
  • Tuesday – Steak
  • Wednesday – Orange Chicken
  • Thursday – Lasagna
  • Friday – Out for dinner
  • Saturday – Chili

What’s on your menu? I’m always looking for ideas!

    Sounds great, and I should try making meal plans. That would probably save me money. My post tomorrow is about cheap and simple spaghetti carbonara – that is a menu item you could add to your list!

    That looks amazing! I will definitely be trying that recipe. I was doing some research on swagbucks after seeing it on your blog and I was wondering if you could give me some more info on it? Maybe it really is as easy at it seems. If you have time I'd love to hear from you. My email address is ambraun2@gmail.com. hopefully I don't get penis enhancer spam emails for putting my email on here..haha. Have a great week!
