Monday Menu Plan...On Monday!!!!

Yay, I made it. I've remembered and I have my menu plan for the week done. Although I've just been informed that due to an extra person staying for the coming weekend, of the teenage variety, that perhaps we could accommodate at least one or two of her three food-loves. I think it wouldn't be too hard to delight the heart of a delightful girl!

Today I finally received my first group of College subjects. The wrong workbooks were sent, so I needed to return them and receive the correct ones and the work programs, which comes separately, never arrived until I finally inquired. It seems sometimes too much patience isn't a good thing. Who knew! As I was reading through the information, I discovered that there is a stipulation that students NOT work in their own children's classrooms. I've already emailed, asking for an exception, as the two days I work are indeed in my children's classrooms. If you think of it, would you pray that those who make that decision on my behalf would do so with compassion and understanding.

So...onto our menu!

Monday: Nachos (I even found avocados at a reasonable price!)
Tuesday: Ricotta fritters, vegies
Wednesday: Chicken bacon rolls, vegies
Thursday: Crockpot meatloaf, vegies
Friday: Dinner at school
Saturday: Chicken Parmigana, vegies
Sunday: Chicken & Dumplings

I got the recipe from Chicken & Dumplings from Steph's Country Kitchen Goodness a way back when my children were babes in arms. Steph's site has since disappeared, which I was very sad about when I discovered it was missing. In any case, this recipe survived all that drama and we continue to enjoy it. Chicken soup with hearty dumplings is the perfect meal for a stormy cool Autumn evening!

I'm off to begin this year's studying :)
