Menu Plan Monday, November 7th

My kids helped plan our menu for this week. It’s always great to have help from the family in planning our meals. If your family doesn’t help you, be sure to ask them for ideas each week. Eventually they will have ideas to share too.

This week they picked southern fried tofu and pita pocket sandwiches. I need to make a batch of pita bread before the end of the week for our sandwiches.

If you haven’t ever tried making your own pita bread, it’s not as hard as you might think to make. You can grab the recipe I use to give a try. We love homemade pitas.

We have ham in the freezer, so we will have it for dinner one night this week.

I’ll be making hoisin chicken. It’s like the hoisin meatballs I make I put the hoisin glaze over the chicken and then bake. It’s an easy dinner to make and I bake the rice too. 

Glazed pork chops are another easy dinner idea that is oh so good. You cook the rubbed pork chops in the skillet to brown then transfer then to the oven to finish. They are so good. 

We are having breakfast for dinner this week too. My husband loves to have omelets and I found eggs on sale for $.88 a dozen last week so I bought 3 dozen.  

The rest of this week’s recipes are easy to make meals we enjoy often.

All week long we eat the same breakfast but when it comes to the weekends I make something special. And this week we’ll be having waffles for breakfast. They are so light and fluffy. So much better than the store bought waffles.

If you have a waffle iron you need to give them a try. 

Here’s what’s cooking at our house this week,

  1. Everything on your menu this week sounds delish. That is an amazing price for eggs! I just bought a dozen today at WalMart and they were $3.19. What area do you live in?

    1. Barbara, that is a high price for eggs. We live in Oregon. Our 5 dozen eggs at Walmart here is just $7.47 and a dozen usually runs about $1.99. I purchased the eggs I was talking about in the post at a discount grocery store, they were close to expiring but such a good deal.
