menu plan monday: 10/18 - 10/31




I did meal planning for two weeks while Peter is home. Also, while Nathan was at work the past week, we had Kayla for dinner as much as possible. We started on Wednesday with this....

- Grilled Chicken Caprese Salad
[recipe]


This meal is super easy to make a so so delicious!!! :O) Kayla hadn't been eating much but LOVED this!

Thursday:

- Pork Chops w/Rice 

[recipe]
Brown chops in oil, remove and set aside. To pan, add 3 stalks diced celery and saute until tender. Add 16 oz. can tomato sauce, 1-1/2 cups water, 3 T brown sugar, 1/2 tsp. basil, salt/pepper, and 1 cup long cooking rice. Stir. Add chops back to pan, cover, and cook 30 minutes (stirring occasionally).

I took Kayla a plate for her dinner.

Friday:

- Cold Cut Sub Sale [PTA]

No cook day- Kayla had hers delivered here and visited with Rowen. :O)
