     Menu Plan Monday: August 23 – August 29th 

    My family has been commenting how good meals have been lately at home.  Thank you E-Mealz.com!  The biggest flop from last week was the Tuna Casserole.   I have never found a canned tuna recipe that my family likes.  Meals last week that were well received were the following:

    Chicken Tenders Salad
    Ham & Broccoli Pastry
    BLT Sandwiches/Strawberry Parfaits
    Teriyaki Chicken Kabobs

    I can’t say enough about meal planning.  My youngest and I have been suffering through ragweed season.  Since having our meals planned, it has made it very easy for my hubby to step in and assist with meal prep allowing me to rest a bit. 

    Here is what is on the menu this week at our house.
