This week starts our first full week of school. The first two days went well. Here’s to another week!
With homeschooling and SoldierBoy still away, I decided to keep meals pretty simple again this week. Waffles are a favorite dinner when he’s gone, so I’ll be making them again this week. Today I spent some time prepping parts of this week’s meals–made the barbecue sauce, the Mexican rice, taco meat, chicken marinade and the sesame pasta salad. If I don’t spend time on Sunday prepping for the weeks SoldierBoy is away, I end up relying on frozen junk way too much. It makes for a tiring Sunday but an easier week.

Hi, I’m visiting from OrgJunkie. Thanks for posting your menu plan. The pineapple-spy chicken sounds delicious. Do you have a recipe for this? I also tend to do a lot of cooking at the weekend as the weeks are just so manic.
