Menu Plan Monday

It's time for Menu Plan Monday again.

Our family does not eat eggs, dairy, nuts, or mushrooms due to allergies.

I am only including my breakfast and dinner this week because we usually just wing our lunches.

Here are my breakfasts (with fruit):

  • Monday –  Leftovers from yesterday morning
  • Tuesday – muffins
  • Wednesday – breakfast skillet (onions, bacon, peppers, potatoes)
  • Thursday – oatmeal
  • Friday- Baking Powder Biscuits and pepperoni
  • Saturday – pancakes
  • Sunday – pancakes

Here are my dinners for this week (with vegetables):

  • Monday – beef stew pie with Biscuit Topping
  • Tuesday – pizza night
  • Wednesday – pasta
  • Thursday – leftovers
  • Friday – roast beef dinner with all the fixings
  • Saturday – pork roast with all the fixings
  • Sunday – shepherds pie

This is my third week to link up with Menu Plan Monday. I am really enjoying it. We grocery shop once a month. I am already working on next month's menu ideas and grocery list. Everyone is loving the pizza night. Most of us like the roast beef dinners (one kid doesn't). Those things will definitely be on next month's menu. We will continue rotating the pork and chicken. We have all decided that we would like to try cola chicken (I am looking for a recipe). I have already decided that Mexican needs to be added to the list and possibly Chinese just to give us more variety.

If you have any creative ideas that would feed 9 people and fit our allergy requirements (mentioned above), I would love to hear from you.

So what are you eating this week?

Morning Has Broken

Here is my Song For Sunday:

Something triggered my memory of the song, Morning Has Broken this week. I first learned this song in my elementary music class. I have fond memories of my elementary music class and Mrs. Bailey. She was the most amazing music teacher. I found out years later that Mrs. Bailey was a Christian when I saw her at a youth meeting her son was leading. I remember sitting in her class once a week and learning a variety of different types of music. She had a Smartie jar that you got to visit when you were well behaved. There were two rows of stools at the back of the class that you got to sit on when you were in grade six or seven. I can still vividly see her classroom and how it was laid out. It's funny the things you remember after 28 years.

On doing a search of Mrs. Bailey, I was saddened to discover that she died of Alzheimer's last summer. I have such good memories of her.
