I waited until the last minute Sunday to try and meal plan. Mike came home and was ready to go to the grocery store as it was 6pm and he had spent the entire day at the Texans game. They won but he said it was a boring game but I am digressing. I was home the entire day but wasn’t in the mood to do anything as noted in this post on my other blog. So I had all of 5 minutes to plan out our dinners and lunches for this week. I think I did a decent job since we will have left overs from Sunday for Monday’s dinner. I am going to try and do better next week though. Plan more in advance.
So here is our menu. I have 1 recipe posted and will post the others as I make the recipe.
Monday – Lunch: ham & cheese sandwich, grapes, yogurt, banana
Dinner: BBQ Shrimp and Pineapple, salad
Tuesday:Lunch: ham & cheese sandwich, grapes, yogurt, banana
Dinner: Pork tenderloin, salad, peas or corn
Wednesday: Lunch: ham & cheese sandwich, grapes, yogurt, banana
Dinner: Going out to Happy Hour. Will try to eat slow cooker Pork Chops before we go.
Thursday: Lunch: ham & cheese sandwich, grapes, yogurt, banana
Dinner: Slow cooker Pork Chops, salad
Friday: Lunch: ham & cheese sandwich, grapes, yogurt, banana or Lean Cuisine
Dinner: Pork chops & salad or Pizza & salad
Saturday: Lunch: open
Dinner: LSU vs. Florida at Big Woodrows here in Houston. Will be having some Boudin balls and Fried Alligator
I briefly discussed my downfall with budgeting and weight loss - it is my lack of planning what to cook early in the week. I found a great meme that I hope will help tackle this issue.

This week I will be using the contents from my pantry, freezer, and donations from my mother’s house to create our meals for the week. I’ll post recipes & photos as I make these items.
Monday – Finish off the Chicken Rollups from my mother
Tuesday – Thursday – Crawfish Etouffee
Friday – Homemade Pizza
Saturday – Company over so probably eating out
Sunday – Sushi (with a coupon!)
