Menu Plan Monday 01/20/25

Hi everyone

It's been a slow cooking weekend for me, because I'm sick again. That 'Back to school' germs hit me. I know that we usually end up getting sick after every school break. DS had a slight runny nose last week and on Thursday night I told BF how I'm glad we haven't been sick in a long time, cause we eat so well. I spoke to soon. Guess who has been sick since Friday. I think I have covid again, cause all I did was sleep the weekend away. I mainly have a sore throat and hoarse voice and tons of fatigue. I'm so worn out, I ended up doing my weekly cooking in stages.

Monday : Chicken soup with homemade bread rolls

Tuesday : Spaghetti with meat sauce, salad, garlic naan

Wednesday : Same as Monday

Thursday : Same as Tuesday

Friday : Haven't decided yet

Saturday : Red Robin (DS)

Breakfasts :  Lemon blueberry muffins, breakfast sausage, eggs or omelets, toast, chocolate brioche or raisin bread french toast, cereal, muesli

Lunch : Leftovers or protein from freezer with salad 

Dessert : Leftover cookies & pumpkin pie

There's always fresh salad fixings and a variety of fresh fruit & veg available. 

My bread rolls didn't rise too well until it started baking. I knew that I didn't mix the initial yeast correctly, but didn't have the energy to start over. It tastes fine though.

I had planned on making spaghetti & meatballs, but again didn't have the energy to make meatballs. The meat sauce was easier to cook as I mainly pulled ingredients from the freezer.

Bon Appetit peeps! It's gonna be an icy cold week. Hope everyone stays healthy, safe & warm.

  2. It's been a while since we had spaghetti. I need to add that to our menu this week. Baked spaghetti would be so good! I hope you get to feeling better soon.

  3. I have never made meatballs for spaghetti. So, mine is easy, but still hard when I do make it.

    1. Meatballs are so yummy with spaghetti. I especially love making meatball subs with the leftovers.
