Menu Plan Monday (And Baking Plans Too!)

I spent some time this morning going through recipes and deciding on both meals to cook and things to bake this week. You may remember that several weeks ago I spent a week baking a few things each day to put in the freezer. I have enjoyed having these items to pull for quick breakfasts, and also have been able to give some things away. As I pulled the last loaf of bread from the freezer this morning, I realized that another "baking week" was in order! And so, in this post, I am including a list of meals and a list of what I *hope* to bake this week. This list is just a list, I will add. Not a taskmaster. With a house full of sick children, I don't know if this will all get done-- I may stretch it into two weeks.

And that's okay. Let's practice saying that together.

Ok, here's a list of our meals for the week in no assigned order:

• Couscous chicken tenders with fresh veggies
• Baked chicken (recipe on the side of the Bisquick box), sweet potato casserole, and green beans
• hot dogs with chili, chips and salsa, canned fruit (Daddy's working late that night!)
• roast with gravy, cooked carrots, mashed potatoes, rolls
• Chicken milano (tomato and white wine sauce) over angel hair pasta, steamed broccoli
• scrambled eggs, chocolate chip crumbcake, grits and bacon
• Pork roast, rice and gravy, corn
• chili with shredded cheese, sour cream and tortilla chips on top
• Cuban beans and rice (Go here to see what has prompted this meal)

And now for the baking:

• Honey oat muffins
• Chocolate Peanut Butter Drop Cookies (Oh Shari, your favorite!)
• Blueberry muffin cake
• Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Crumbcake
• Banana Bread
• Strawberry Cake
• Yeast Bread
• Chocolate Chip Cake
• Chocolate Marshmallow Squares

ETA: The honey oat muffins are baked and so are the chocolate peanut butter drop cookies! I am on a roll!
