Menu Plan Monday, June 29th through July 5th

I’m trying to keep it simple for this Menu Plan Monday. I’ve got an editing deadline for the Faithwalkers Journal this week, so I don’t want to get bogged down with any complicated meals.

Fun link for the week: If you’re looking to eat more salads this summer, you might want to check out this article with links to fifty different pasta salad recipes!

Here’s what we’re having:

Monday: Spaghetti, green salad, garlic bread

Tuesday: Whole chicken in the crock pot, sweet potato fries (my double coupon bargain from this past week at Rainbow), frozen veggie du jour

Wednesday: homemade pizza or possibly a casserole from the freezer if I don’t even have time to make pizza.  If we do make pizza, I’m going to try a whole-wheat or partial-whole-wheat crust for the first time!

Thursday: Chicken and Dumplings in the crock pot

Friday: Dilled Salmon Pasta Salad (found this recipe from the list of 50 pasta salad recipes linked to above!)

Saturday: Happy 4th of July! We’ll probably grill out…maybe some steaks that I got on sale this past week at Target!

Sunday: Stir Fry and Egg Rolls
