Wednesday---Redbeans and Rice with a side of Buttermilk Cornbread.
Thursday---Roasted Turkey (I just so happen to have a fully cooked Turkey in my freezer, Yay!) with Guy Fiere Potatoes (can't remember the exact name, but that's where I found them and they are soooo yum.) and garlic greenbeans.
Friday---Taco night, hard and soft with the trimmings...served with Spanish Rice (homemade O'coarse)
Saturday---Chicken Stew
Super, now I'm hungry! Off to go shopping, these meals don't cook themselves!
While sitting here finishing up, I came up with my second week meal plan! Got some great ideas from the food channel site. New recipes to try, so excited!

Thursday---Orange Ginger Pork Skewers with Vegetable Lo Mein.

I can totally relate to meal planning angst :) I am on again off again. It does go SO much better when I plan. One thing I decided was to NOT assign a meal a specific day. That way if I was having a rushed hurried day and I had planned an elaborate dinner, I wouldn't be freaking out. I can just chose an easier dinner and do the elaborate dinner on another night! My mom trained me to come home from the store and put EVERYTHING (meat) in the freezer unless I was going to cook it that night. We don't have a micro. That is VERY inconvenient! lol! I try to keep meat for 2-3 dinners thawing at once. Which not only gives me NO excuse to insist we go out, but it also gives me flexibility if I need it....good luck!
