Menu Plan FRIDAY

I have recently decided to switch my grocery shopping day from Saturday or Sunday to Friday in the hope of not stumbling upon picked-over produce, and I am trying to get back on the menu planning wagon! This is my first planned week in a long time. They will now go from Friday - Thursday. And heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere we go!


Friday: Burgers on the grill, corn on the cob & roasted potatoes
Saturday: Out to dinner
Sunday: Spinach & feta stuffed chicken, garlic rice and tossed salad
Monday: Pasta Carbonara Florentine (for me - Nick's night at the gym)
Tuesday: Taco salad
Wednesday: Homemade pizza (for me - Nick's night at the gym)
Thursday: Teriyaki Chicken with Warm Ginger-Carrot Slaw (RR recipe)
