Thanksgiving took a lot out of me. LOL. I cooked for two days straight in preparation and I’m still (three days out) kind of at the point where I don’t want to look at another pot or pan for at least another week.
But these people in my house, they get hungry, you see. So cook I must. Ugh.
Here is this week’s meal plan. I’m trying to get away from “Thanksgiving-y” types of food because I’ve had enough stuffing and turkey to last me a loooong time.
Monday (My birthday! So Mama is NOT cooking!)
My husband asked what I wanted for my birthday dinner and I said, Chipotle. I’m so easy to please.
Tuesday
Mongolian Beef with brown rice and broccoli
Wednesday + Thursday
Baked spaghetti with cream cheese. I’m making a 9×14 pan’s worth, so there will be enough for two days. I’ve got to remember to do this more often. No need for me to cook every day!
Friday
Saturday
My husband turns 32 on this day so I will be taking him out to dinner to celebrate!
Sunday
Beef-and-bean taco casserole. I’m going to have the kids help me make this in order to increase the chances that they’ll eat it. *wink*
That beef-and-bean taco casserole sounds really good and easy to make, I’m going to substitute the beef with turkey meat though.
