Menu Plan Monday...week of January 23



We finally have some measurable snow on the ground here!  Unfortunately, the drizzling rain preceded it and made for some slippery driving.  Thankfully, I didn't have to get anywhere this morning, but my husband did...rush hour is never fun, and certainly not when there has been snow!  :(

Because of the weather, I am once again in the mood for comfort foods...soups and such, will be on my mind and menu this week.

MONDAY:  Split Pea and Ham soup (with added tomatoes) -- after reading a friend's Facebook status this morning, I decided to make this today!  Hopefully, it will not be greeted with too many groans...never a favorite with my children, but my husband loves it (and he had a hard drive today)!!!  :)

TUESDAY:  Sloppy Joe and/or Maid-Rite sandwiches (both fillings in freezer)

WEDNESDAY:  Sandwiches, Diner's Choice

THURSDAY:  Crockpot Black Bean Chili

FRIDAY:  Tator Tot Hotdish (a family favorite---no activities tonight, I will actually have time to make this one!)

Last week, I tried a new recipe, Ham and Cheese Pot Pie.  It was a change from your typical pot pie.  I had the family rate it for me (1 - 5 stars).  It received between 3 and 3.5 stars.  I think I will make it again, but not in the near future!

2 comments make me happy:

  1. I worked from home for 6 years so no outside commute. Sometimes I forget that my hubby might have a difficult time when it's raining in Vegas. (people don't know how to drive)
    Your menu sounds delicious!

  2. Ha ha! Any kind of precipitation turns people into terrible drivers, I think! Thanks for visiting!
