Menu plan - October 20

I realize I just posted a plan a week ago. But I just made another store run for the next couple of weeks, so I needed to revamp our menu. It does include a couple of recipes from the last post(found HERE) since my days are overlapped.

Buffalo Chicken Soup - RECIPE

pizza(twice) - frozen, from Costco

Eggroll in a bowl (low carb) - RECIPE - I made this last night and it was way too salty. I like the idea but next time will use Italian sausage and way less soy sauce.

Souvlaki - RECIPE - this is leftovers in the freezer

Crockpot Chicken Ranch Tacos - RECIPE

Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Brisket - RECIPE

Chicken Fajita Soup - RECIPE - frozen leftovers

Mexican Chicken Stir Fry - RECIPE

Sausage, eggs, grits and toast

Hamburger steaks - grilled frozen leftovers

Seasoned chicken over a garden salad

Our sides this menu vary from black beans, pinto beans, Doritos, tortilla chips, salads, edamame. I bought cauliflower rice to try too.

Menu plan Tuesday!

I always love knowing what others cook and seeing new recipes. I also love trying new recipes! I always menu plan and grocery shop for 2 weeks at a time, with a few stops for produce/milk in between. So here's what I'm making for the next 2 weeks. I don't do a full 14 meals because sometimes we eat salads, quick soups, go out etc. I also try to cook mostly lower carb foods. Almost every meal includes a salad or I will warm up frozen or canned veggies. I use my crock pot 2-3 times a week, also. I also never set what is to be cooked that day. I have tried writing it on a calendar but then I always switch days. So I just make a list and mark it off when I've made it. If it makes leftovers, that gets frozen and added to the list as another meal.

-Mexican Beef & Zucchini Skillet - Recipe HERE

-Chicken Fajita Soup (twice) - recipe HERE

-Buffalo Chicken Soup- recipe HERE

-Beef Stroganoff - recipe HERE
 - with brussel sprouts

-Taco Soup- recipe HERE

-Souvlaki- recipe HERE - I've never made the sauce.

-Black bean fajitas- recipe HERE

-pizza (twice)- frozen, bought from Costco :)

-hamburger steak (twice)- Frozen leftovers from grilling out last weekend. I may add some brown gravy over them once and then sprinkle Ranch seasoning over them the other time to vary it up.

 Leave me your best recipes! Always looking for something new to try!
