What we ate - meal planning week one

These posts are probably not interesting, but I find them interesting when other people post them, so there you go. I’m trying to meal plan weekly again, yay! September should be okay, but October is not going to work out because I'm never home.

Week of 9/6 meal plan

Sunday chicken burgers and green beans

Monday salad (the kids don't eat dinner at home on Mondays, they fill up on junk at grandma's.)

Tuesday shrimp and potatoes gratin

Wednesday savory waffles and eggs

Thursday balsamic pasta

Friday chicken gyros w zucchini noodles

Saturday expected day at Disney

Sunday:

 

Kids plate chicken burgers, green beans, orange. They ate everything and also had applesauce pouches.

Our plates - I added leftover black beans w onions and red wine vinegar to C's plate. (Also I may or may not have drank a full bottle of $3 Chuck and C had 2 Goose Island beers over the course of the day)

Monday:

salads - I forgot to take a picture, but it had leftover taco meat, regular salad stuff, chick peas, goat cheese and oil and vinegar. Pretty regular. Kids didn't eat, as expected.

Tuesday: 

shrimp and potatoes au gratin. The potatoes were an attempt to find a kind of potato that Henry will eat. Still failing but for just throwing something together, these were pretty tasty (I know, it doesn’t look like much. A food photographer I am not)

Wednesday:

savory waffles with avocado and fried egg (and bacon)

Thursday:

balsamic pasta – I did not photograph, it looked terrible but was delicious.

Friday:

I could not be bothered, so we had Vietnamese (it was terrible) $17.00

Saturday

Via Napoli at Epcot. Blown budget, here we come - $90

That artichoke pizza and Prosecco was worth every dime to me, especially after spending 2.5 hours at a funeral.
