Back to School

This is it. It is finally here. The first day of school is tomorrow.

Summer = Over.

Alas.  We are all back to our regular routine.

Not to worry - planning makes the routine go more smoothly and this menu planning helps SO MUCH! I know several people are following my blog so I hope it helps you as much as it has helped me. One other resource that has been invaluable is ziplist.com. Once you create an account, you can store your favorite recipes from the web and even clip ones you find along the way. Then, you can create a shopping list right from the recipes! But the absolute best feature is that the list appears on your smartphone via a handy web app. This list is sorted by aisle in the store!! Imagine! Of course, you can also print a paper copy of the list as well. Check it out if you are interested.

Here is the menu:

Sunday:
Chicken Enchilada Stuffed Zucchini Boats
Arugula and Pear Salad

Monday:
Black Bean Burgers
Sweet Potato Fries
We ended up not eating these last week and ate leftovers that night instead. You must make these at least a day ahead so I will be doing the prep on this today.

Wednesday:
Chicken Nuggets/Chicken Tenderloins
Quinoa Salad with Corn and Peppers

Thursday:
Shepherd's Pie

Friday:
Citrus Garlic Pork Loin

Saturday
Cuban Picadillo, Rice and Oranges
