Week of 4/13/14

Just another simple menu plan for this week. Last week we were so busy redoing parts of the house that I didn't plan for anything, we just went with the flow and what we ate was what got thought of when we were nearly finished for the evening. This week we're back to planning.

Sunday - Spaghetti supper with garlic bread
Monday - Chili dogs and french fries
Tuesday - Turkey meatloaf and smashed potatoes
Wednesday - "something beef" night
Thursday - Toss it in the crock pot surprise soup
Friday - Cream of mushroom soup and grilled cheese
Saturday - Leftover buffet

Sometimes we just don't know what we want to make so we'll throw a bunch of random ingredients into the crock pot and make a soup out of it. Sometimes it doesn't turn out good, but most times it turns out to be a wonderful surprise that we all enjoy. The best part of it is that there's really no planning involved! I simply look in the freezer the night before for a meat we have in excess and toss everything all together in the pot in the morning, by supper we have soup!
