Menu Plan Monday

I didn't actually make it to the grocery store this weekend. I had planned to, but it turned out to be a pretty busy weekend. My husband picked up milk and bread to get us through. I'm not sure if I will need to head out again mid-week for other stuff or no. Based on the menu I have planned, we should be good except for maybe milk.

On Saturday, I spent my afternoon cleaning out my pantry. I was inspired after entering the giveaway at $5 Dollar Dinners, where I submitted a picture of my pantry, in need of a makeover. I decided, despite not winning, that it really did need a makeover. More to come on this one.

Cleaning out my pantry actually resulted in my "creating" a new dinner - Chicken Pasta Bake - originally titled Clean out the Pantry Chicken Dinner, but after eating it, it will likely become a more routine meal, so I had to give it a nicer name. Recipe to come on this one.

At our house, the focus is on dinners. I tend to only list the main course and any standard side we have with it. We do still have vegetables and/or fruit with each of our dinners, I just don't always call them out.
