Menu Plan Monday

School is starting, so it is time for more lunchbox friendly menu plans to start showing up.  Right, dinners that can have leftovers taken to school the next day!  Perfect.

I have coasted through the summer on minimal effort at meal times, and the end result is that I am beyond tired of all of my tried and true recipes.  I have done them to death.  Hopefully I will be adding a bit more variety to the plan over the next few weeks, but if you have a favorite recipe or meal please share it in the comments below!

Monday
Breakfast: banana muffins and green smoothie
Lunch: fish tacos
Dinner: chipotle shepherd's pie with sweet potato crust, blueberries

Tuesday
Breakfast: peach ginger cream of buckwheat
Lunch: beef burgers OR leftovers, cantaloupe
Dinner: turkey sloppy joe, fries, peas

Wednesday
Breakfast: turkey sausage and biscuit sandwiches, green smoothie
Lunch: turkey dogs OR leftover sloppy joe
Dinner: 2 bean chili, honey corn muffins

Thursday
Breakfast: pumpkin muffins, green smoothie
Lunch: sunbutter and jelly sandwiches
Dinner: City Barbecue

Friday
Breakfast: pork sausage, Alexia harvest saute
Lunch: pork brats
Dinner: Costa Rican Tilapia, salad, strawberries

Saturday
Breakfast: teff muffins, fresh oj
Lunch: fish sticks
Dinner: grilled steak, grilled veggies, and grilled pineapple (sense a theme?)

Sunday
Breakfast: steak and veggie saute
Lunch: beef dogs
Dinner: turkey meatballs, pasta with marinara sauce, green beans

As a reminder: All links are to the original recipe, I modify those to meet the dietary restrictions of our house.  Proteins are rotated, and will be published in the menu plan.  Side dishes will be listed in some cases, but often I will add whatever was available at the market that week, so they may not always be listed.  (I still serve them!  Even though I don't map them out!)

Have a great week!
