Menu Monday

It's no secret that I am not the cook in our family.  Kurt had done a nice job of taking on that role.  I am, however, a fan of meal planning and grocery shopping. There is something about walking down the aisles of a grocery store that really catches me.  Plus, I know that if Kurt goes to the store, he gets what he likes, instead of what we need for the week.


Each school year, we get into this bad routine of talking about what he are having for dinner while I am on my way home from school.  At that point in the afternoon, I'm usually exhausted and not interested in having that discussion.  This year, we decided that that was not going to happen.  For the past two weeks, we've gotten into menu planning for the week.  On Sundays, we talk about what we are going to have for dinner each week night.  I write down the menu and make a list of what we need to get at the store.  


Here's our menu for the week:


Monday- Crab Feast and Cookout at my parents' house for my sister's b-day


Tuesday- Quesadilla Casserole using the McCormick Recipe Inspirations


Wednesday- Chicken and Veggie kabobs


Thursday- Baked Ziti


Friday- Go out/order in


Have a wonderful Labor Day!  The weather is beautiful here today!
