Menu Plan Monday

I am working with a small group of friends on accountability in a few motherly/wiferly (can that please be a word today??) duties. We sent each other our menu plans for this week and someone suggested I post it to the blog. I don't know how long I'll continue to do so, but I'm willing to give it a whirl. Feel free to ask questions or request recipes. I will try to link where I can, but there will be some things left out, as many of my recipes are not available online. Also, I apologize for any weird formatting issues. I am blogging from my phone! (Have I mentioned my contempt for all things Dell lately?)

  2. Excellent! Thanks for sharing! The mac and cheese looks AWESOME! Do you use her recommended cheeses for your family? I know I'd love it...am wondering about the boys. Thus the name...grown up mac and cheese, eh?
