Week 2 Menu Plan

Did you make it through Week 1 Menu? 

If so, or if you're looking for more great recipes, you're in luck! 

It's #FoodDayFriday here at Biscuits, No Butter and

here is our next week of Meal Plans!

Monday:

• Breakfast: Assorted Instant Oatmeal. All of my kids like the different kinds so we usually buy a mix of flavors.
• Lunch: Cup O Ramen. Somedays ya just have to take it easy, plus it's a kid favorite!
• Dinner: One Pot Jambalaya. Throw everything in one pot & it's done in about 30 minutes.

Tuesday:

• Breakfast: Kaylie's Omelets. This kid of mine loves to make these super simple 2 egg and shredded cheese omelets. (I usually add sliced mushrooms & chopped mushrooms to mine)
• Lunch: Grilled Chicken Bites & Mac&Cheese. I just chop up some tenderloins, throw them in a med high skillet with 1/2tsp of olive oil, and cook. Then make a box of mac&cheese. 
• Dinner: Grilled Pork Chops. We buy the thick cut chops because the hubs likes them more. I toss them in a gallon sized ziplock with 1/4c olive oil, 2 tbsp worcestershire sauce, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp season salt, and 1 tbsp garlic salt. Cook thoroughly on a med. heat grill or in a 350 degree oven for 50 minutes. Pick your favorite side, maybe some grilled asparagus!

Wednesday: 

• Breakfast: Choice of Cereal and fruit.
• Lunch: Tuna Salad on Flaky Croissants. I love the fresh packaged croissants from the bakery!
• Dinner: Broccoli Cheese Soup in Bread Bowls. My husband has a super secret recipe from his uncle that we use, but I have tried this Panera Bread copy cat recipe from Budget Savvy Diva, and it is superb!

Thursday: 

• Breakfast: Monkey Bread. Time to pull out my grandmother's bundt pan and make some ooey-goodness! This recipe from Leaving the Rut is pretty close to mine :)
• Lunch: Mini Personalized Pizzas. My kids participate in the Pizza Hut Book It program, and they have earned enough minutes this month to get their pizzas earlier than normal! You can make your own though with some plain bagels, tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella, and your choice of toppings. 
• Dinner: Teriyaki Chicken Noodle Bowl. I have seriously been craving asian food lately. I have never tried this recipe from Damn Delicious before, but I am this week! Let me know if you are too! It certainly looks delicious!

Friday: 

Friday is usually my grocery shopping day, so recipes are usually easy-peasy!

• Breakfast: Pancakes. Nothing wrong with store bought mix. If you have a yummy homemade recipe, I'd love to try it!
• Lunch: PB&J with a side of Apple Slices.
• Dinner: Smoked Sausage and Brat Dogs on the Grill. Thankfully, we have some yummy Jalapeno & Cheddar Deer Sausage, and the kids love (mostly) anything from the grill! *Insider tip for Brats- Boil them first to cook, then toss on the grill. 

Saturday:

• Breakfast: F.F.Y. When your week is just so crazy, and you just want to snuggle with the hubs Fend For Yourself is to the rescue. My sister-in-law had this ingenious idea for a Breakfast Bowl, and I may have high jacked it for myself! We stock a big punch bowl with the kids favorite Pop-Tarts, Granola Bars, Instant Oatmeal Packets, and fruit. They can have how much of whatever they choose, and they are usually great at getting a balanced mix. They also love that they get to choose!
• Lunch: Homemade Lunchables. A long time ago we quit buying Lunchables and started making our own. Different kinds of crackers, turkey, ham, colby jack cheese sticks, fruit, and a sweet treat. Much cheaper, healthier, and funner.
• Dinner: Garlic Shrimp Alfredo. One of the hubs' favorite meals. Super quick and easy, and twice as delicious! If you don't have a go-to recipe already, I suggest this one from Julia's Album.

Sunday:

• Breakfast: Muffins. As mentioned in the Week 1 Menu, the kids get to choose their own flavors and make them during the week specifically for busy Sunday mornings!
• Lunch: Hot Ham & Swiss Croissants. I don't know if you remember your elementary cafeteria, but if you do you might remember Hot Ham and Cheese on a bun. Seriously y'all, I still love these! Jazz them up a bit by putting them on a croissant with some honey dijon mustard. Wrap them in foil and pop in a 350 oven for 10-15 minutes. Mmmmm. Perfecto!
• Dinner: Loaded Chicken & Potatoes Bake. This one dish recipe from Stockpiling Moms is uber good! 

Well folks, that's all for this week! Check back here next Friday for more #FoodDayFriday recipes and menus!
