Another week of meals to plan! I’m not 100% sure how this week is going to end up playing out as my Mother-in-law is coming to stay with us for Easter weekend. And I’m sure you know things never go according to plan when there’s guests! But for sanity’s sake, I’ll plan the menu like normal, after all, we all have to eat!
Monday: Beef Stew, salad
Tuesday: Spaghetti (anyone have a to-die for tomato sauce recipe?), garlic bread, salad
Wednesday: I’ve got an Indian themed dinner to attend and I’m bringing my cheater samosas. 🙂
Thursday: Teriyaki Chicken, steamed veggies, mashed potatoes
Friday: I think MIL wants to take us out for my belated birthday dinner! I’ll also make waffles for brunch as I think I have Friday off!
What have you got planned for the week? If you need some inspiration, visit I’m an Organizing Junkie!
love the look of those samosas. thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for your speghetti sauce ideas! Adding Parmesan sounds delicious and I never would have thought about sloppy joe mix! Thanks again!
The secret ingredient in my spaghetti sauce is a tbsp of sloppy joe mix. It just adds that little something extra.
I wont give away my recipe for spaghetti sauce, but I will say this: using jar sauce or making from scratch, adding some grated Parmesan cheese is always a hit at our house. It makes the sauce a little less tomato-y tasting, and extra rich and creamy! I usually add about 1/4 cup to mine right at the end.
