Menu Plan Monday.

Do you even know how excited I am?  Do you know what this week is?  Well as of Wednesday, it will officially be FALL!!!!! I love Autumn... and lucky for me, here in South Texas we pretty much skip over winter for an extra long autumn season, and also we have been so blessed with a nice bout of rain this week, and the tempurature is actually nice and cooling down! So it actually feels like fall outside this week. :) Well, we are a little ahead on our lessons, so we are taking a day off from formal school on Wednesday to make a few decorations, decorate the house, and do some special baking/cooking projects. I love homeschooling!
 So of course to follow the new season, we have a great yummy savory menu this week. Enjoy, Hope it spurs on some ideas for you.

Monday:
Honey glazed Grilled Chicken, Baked Sweet Potatoes, Snow Peas
Tuesday:
Rachel's Shredded Crockpot Chicken tacos, beans
Wednesday: First day of FALL!! Awanas
Breakfast: Pumpkin Muffins
Lunch: Leaf Shaped, Grilled turkey and cheese, apples with carmel sauce, chips
Dinner: Butternut Squash Bisque, whole grain crackers
Thursday:
Loaded Chicken Nachos (leftover shredded chicken), guacamole
Friday: Family Movie Night
Little Ceasars Pizza, Popcorn, Green Smoothies
Saturday: Another fun day of cooking
Breakfast:Monkey Bread, scrambled eggs
Lunch: Chili, cheese, Crackers
Dinner: Chicken, Brocolli, & Rice Casserole, with Fresh Baked Bread* and butter
Sunday:
Lunch:  Texas Enchiladas, (with leftover chili) Chips, and Guacamole
Dinner: Small Group

*Notice I said Fresh baked and not Homemade Lets not get too crazy here... I'll buy the frozen dough and let it rise :)

Sorry there is not a plan for every meal, they all run together and I seem to very rarely follow what I plan for breakfast and lunch, so I only put special or specific meals that I have planned for the week. Breakfast will for that likely consist of yoguart, cereal, or toast... and lunch will be sandwiches and leftovers. Easy enough, huh?  Hope you all have a wonderful day of meal plannin and cooking this wonderful week of fall! :)
