Menu Plan Monday

During John Dear's brief interlude with unemployment (he'll be starting a new job in 2 weeks), he has been trying to make dinner during the week, so that it is ready when I come home from work. It feels like it is impossible to keep him to a menu plan, especially where recipes are involved. JD just hates, hates to follow a recipe -- preferring to make his own creations (which are not always that edible).

For this week, I'm going to write the plan for dinners this week and post it to the fridge, hoping that he'll follow the plan. Also, since JD isn't good about remembering to include a side vegetable, I bought a couple bags of frozen vegetable mixes that he can just pop in the microwave.

Monday - Meatloaf (steamed broccoli)
Tuesday - French Onion chicken (carrots, celery, onions)
Wednesday - Salmon fillet (whole wheat couscous & mixed veggies)
Thursday - Italian chicken (garlic cauliflower)
Friday - Teriyaki chicken (asian stirfry veggies)
Saturday - Dinner Out!
