I am a mom of 3 girls, teacher, and I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen. This blog is my way of sharing my experiences with those who wish to follow.

Weekly Meal Plan

Weekly Meal Plans

Teenagers. Am I right? I have an 8th grader and a 10th grader. Tennis practice and cheer practice. Lots of work stuff happening with the parents 🙂 But we are trying to eat at home more often together to connect. No phones or head phones. We talk and eat. We recently have finished “The Good Place” together as a family, which we watched after the girls cleaned all the dishes 🙂

Sunday- Spaghetti Carbonara

Monday- Leftover Chilaquiles

Tuesday- Chicken Thighs with creamy mushrooms and snap peas

Wednesday- Salmon foil poached with corn and potatoes

Thursday- Leftover night

Friday- Go out!

Chicken, Beans, and Rice Bowl

Mexican, Pantry Raid, Thrifty Meals
Easy to throw together! Lettuce, rice, beans (black and kidney), grilled chicken, and lots of cheese!

Not really photogenic after it is mixed up, but very tasty! I topped it with black olives and chips! I might use my leftovers to make a quesadilla or burrito tomorrow for lunch 🙂

Fresh Market for the win!

Dips, Dressings, and Spreads

If you live near a Fresh Market, you should pick up one their frozen chicken pot pies. Katie picked the last one out of the case on a Friday afternoon. I didn’t want to leave the house, so this was an easy bake in the oven. Really yummy! I also hear they have good pizza…
