Last Week's Menu:
Monday: chicken mac & cheese
Tuesday: chicken tacos
Wednesday: spinach lasagna rolls
Thursday: Vallarta's ... god loves their mushroom quesadillas
Friday: re-imagined leftovers - I split up the last of the tortellini from Saturday, sauteed some shrimp and served it on a bed of sauteed spinach with garlic chips
Saturday: pulled pork sandwiches, guacamole, bacon-wrapped jalapenos, baked beans and lots and lots of wine!
Sunday: leftovers again! This time less re-imagining - I had the end of the mac & cheese and a slice of the beer bread from the previous week, and Hubby had the last lasagna roll with the last slice of beer bread with cheese and garlic on it.
This week I haven't done any shopping so I'm not sure what I'm going to do for meals, but I've gotten as far as this:
Monday: burgers w/ goat cheese and spinach, leftover baked beans
Tuesday: pork enchiladas or quesadillas (w/ leftover pulled pork), rice and beans
Wednesday: grilled chicken with fried okra
Thursday: dinner at the in-laws'
Friday: TBD
Saturday: TBD

How weird is it that we've had several similar meals planned over the last 2 weeks? For example, my husband made pulled pork last week, we have chicken enchiladas on the menu this week. Neither of these are "routine" meals for us, either.
Had some terrific Jambalaya from one of those frozen meal bags at the grocery store the other day - so incredibly yummy. It was a "meal for 2" though, so when I wanted a little more, I was SOL
I always have a couple of those skillets in my freezer for when I don't feel like cooking - they really are good for when you feel like pulling your hair out and don't want to add one more thing to your (figurative) plate.
Enchiladas aren't a regular meal but I think I do pulled pork once or twice a month. I prefer to slow cook a pork roast in the crock pot, and then we can have a day of pulled pork, a day of pork roast with potatoes, and then a day of whatever else I want to make with the pork. HOWEVER he wanted to cook it on the spit since people were coming over, and I so much prefer how I do things ... :)
