Alright, here we go. My first real menu plan and my first time participating in Organizing Junkie’s Menu Plan Monday. I have to say that I really enjoyed sitting down this morning before going to the grocery store and planning out what I was going to make this week.  I couldn’t believe how much EASIER it made grocery shopping.  Instead of just randomly buying things that “sounded good” I was being strategic!  It was insane.  This week I decided to go the vegetarian route.  Some of these are new recipes for me so I’ll be sure to let you know which worked and which didn’t (hopefully they’ll all be tasty!).

Monday - Fruit Plate (Boys have soccer, I have a late meeting)
Tuesday-Black Beans & Rice: Brown rice, black beans, corn, tomatoes, onion, shallot & avocado
Wednesday- Veggie Wraps: Whole wheat wraps, hummus, gr. pepper, tomato, lettuce, cucumber & avocado
Thursday-  Soup: Diced tomatoes, onions, potatoes, corn, celery, tomato paste and veggie broth
Friday- Date Night – Boys having Grilled Cheese & Veggie Soup, Fruit Cup.
Saturday – Veggie Tacos: Whole wheat tortillas, vegetarian “meat” crumbles, tomato, avocado, lettuce, corn & salsa.
Sunday – Pasta Dish: Whole wheat pasta, garlic, olive oil, walnuts & craisins.
