Another week another meal plan

Here we go, into the playoffs.....GO NINERS!!!!!  I seriously hope they do better than they did last year.

This week is a simple menu, easy recipes to make and some that help the others.  If you are new to my recipe list there is something I am in love with.  Crusty bread.  I have been making it non-stop since my birthday when I got my beautiful Le Creuset pan.  You can do SO much with this recipes, just breeze through the views for tons of ideas.  http://simplysogood.blogspot.com/2010/03/crusty-bread.html  the easiest bread you will EVER make!  Guaranteed!

So here we go:

Friday: Taco Night.  In an effort to be healthy I now make our tacos using ground turkey.  Far less calories than ground beef.  But alas I do use the packaged spice mix.  I know, I know....home made is so easy to make and tastes so much better.  I know.  But I do love the mix!

Saturday: We have a birthday party to go to that runs until 5pm so a crockpot meal is perfect!  We will get home shortly after the game starts and get o enjoy dinner almost immediately.  http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/04/crock-pot-buffalo-chicken-lettuce-wraps.html  I will probably end up with lettuce wraps but use this chicken to make nachos for my husband.  And if someone in your family doesn't like blue cheese, just give them jack cheese instead.  It is husband approved.

Sunday: We will be seeing the Lion King in SF so we will be dining out and make it a special day out for the family.

Monday: One of my favorite recipes that couldn't be more simple to make.  http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/02/garlic-cheddar-biscuits.html  these are such tasty little things.  I am going to serve it with this simple soup. http://www.thenest.com/ODB/themes/recipes/detailview.aspx?STOPREDIRECTING=TRUE&id=8596&type=7&recipe_type=Healthy&pageIndex=12&MsdVisit=1

Tuesday: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/10/skinny-buffalo-chicken-potato-skins.html  These are very tasty little things that I serve with a salad on the side.

Wednesday & Thursday: clear out the leftovers!  Also, if you still have buffalo chicken leftover, it makes for an excellent pizza.  I do it "healthy" by making mine for lunch on a flat out wrap, using ranch for sauce and a sprinkle of blue cheese.  My sister always tries to crash that lunch.  :)

Have a great weekend and week everyone!!!
