Weekly Menu

Sometimes the hardest part of cooking dinner every night is coming up with a good, healthy and desirable meal on the spot.  Occasionally we can be good at shooting from the hip, but it doesn't usually work as a long term plan when it comes to dinner.  Writing weekly dinner menus is the answer!  Weather you shop the sales and make a menu from your findings,  or you shop according to your menu, it's always better when you have a plan.  It's a beautiful thing to wake up in the morning and already know what's for dinner ;)

 I usually don't plan more than 5 meals per week, because I like to leave a night open for leftovers, and a night for Jeff and I to go out.
This is my plan this week:

1)  Turkey Lettuce Wraps, brown rice, fresh cut honeydew
2) Chicken in a cherry pan sauce, quinoa, steamed broccoli
3) Spinach-Mushroom Skillet Enchiladas, corn on the cob, fresh cut pineapple
4) Mexican Chicken, Zucchini and Corn Soup with tortillas for dipping
5) Beef and Vegetable Stir-Fry, brown rice
