Meal Plan Monday - April 16, 2012

Pin It Well, we just returned late last night from a weekend trip to visit family in Maryland.  It was a great weekend, but we are all worn out!   A highlight of the trip for me was how easy the food/meals came together.  As those with food allergies know, traveling is tricky and requires some planning and prep-work to be sure you'll have things to eat while away.  During this trip, my mother-in-law had done some of that for me and prepared a wonderful beef and veggie soup - allergen-free!  There was a pizza party we attended which turned out to be easy since we brought along a frozen pizza crust, Daiya cheese shreds and spaghetti sauce - instant pizza.  So now onto this week . . .

MONDAY - Chicken Pot Pie.  This one I made a while back and froze so dinner tonight will be heat and serve!

TUESDAY - Ranch Seasoned Chicken and Oven Fries 

WEDNESDAY - Mrs. Jolly's Chicken Casserole.  I'm just realizing I haven't posted this recipe yet.  Its a good one and freezes well, so I'll try to share it soon.

THURSDAY - Shrimp Scampi with Schar gluten-free noodles

FRIDAY - Pulled Chicken in the Crockpot served over Rice.  This will be a run-around evening as I get my daughter to dance class and my son to baseball.  The crockpot to the rescue!

SATURDAY - My daughter and I will be eating at the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet given by her Faith Girls Group.  Not sure what the rest of my family will eat . . . hummm.

SUNDAY - Hamburgers

As a side note, I plan to post my new sandwich bread recipe this week!  I'm really excited about it because its, well, really good!  Be sure to check back later in the week.
