Midweek Menu Plan

I get asked ALL THE TIME what we have/had for various meals. So I thought I would start sharing our weekly menu. I know most people share on Monday but, I have a hard time doing a Monday Menu Plan because, well, we get paid in the middle of the week. Therefore, I shop in the middle of the week, which means I plan our menu in the middle of the week. The first thing I do when I am planning our menu is print off a few Menu Planning Printables from Mommy Hates Cooking. I like using her printable because she includes a space for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and Snack, as well as an area for your Grocery List and Coupons.

Mid-Week Menu Plan for 7/31-8/6
Wednesday 7/31
Breakfast: Cereal
Lunch: Sandwiches
Dinner: Italian Crockpot Chicken - Recipe coming soon!

Thursday 8/1

Saturday 8/3-Monday8/5
The girls and I are actually heading out of town for the weekend, that means hubby has to fend for himself.
Tuesday 8/6
Breakfast: Waffles (I use this mix)

Right now we are trying a lot of new recipes, ones that we have not tried before. With school starting soon, I like to have a good rotation of foods. Hopefully we will find some new favorites to add into our "normal" rotation. I love trying new recipes! If you have any you think I should try, let me know!

Strawberries and Cream Instant Oatmeal | Recipe

I don't know about you but, we go through oatmeal like that is the only thing to eat on this planet!   Seriously a TON! My youngest would eat it for every meal and snack....every day....if I let her. Yes, the little packs can be cheap (if you can find a coupon and get them on sale) but it still adds up.  I used things I already had on hand so there was no extra cost to make this.  FREE is ALWAYS good!   I tried before to make little packets to keep on hand but that was a complete fail.  I have since reworked the recipe and am happy with the results.  I decided to just keep the oatmeal in a glass container this time and scoop out what we need, when we need it.  You can also make this into packets by just scooping the desired amount into zip-top bags. {Strawberries & Cream Instant Oatmeal}   12 Servings 6 Cups Quick Cook Oats 1 1/2 Cups Oat Powder 2 Cups Powdered Milk 1 - 1 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Cup Fr...

Being {P}resent

This post is sponsored by Family Christian . All opinions are my own. Last year I decided on the word Change for my 'word of the year'. This year, my word is Present. Present. Being, existing or occurring at this time or now. At this time. Being with one or others. Being here. Present. Over the last year, many, MANY things have changed. There have been divorces, marriages, babies being born, loved ones lost, illnesses, decisions were made. Lives were forever changed. I'm not going to lie, 2014 was a TOUGH year. I grew and learned a LOT about myself, my husband, our marriage, our children, our families and our friends. Our world was rocked more than once last year.   One of the major changes that occurred in 2014, we decided to start homeschooling. You guys. That was a HARD decision. The first few months were HARD. Our relationships with the girls changed....for the better. We have all learned SO MUCH. This change was good! Because of all of...
