Menu Planning Monday


This is going to be a very busy week!  We are in the midst of doing some house remodeling and rearranging and we hope to get a big chunk done over the Thanksgiving weekend.  So I've tried to plan some easy meals and also do a little bit of cooking ahead early this week so that on Thanksgiving  I won't have much to cook except the Turkey.

This week I plan to cook ahead:
1. Big batch of pancakes and freeze (DONE! This AM  72 pancakes = 9 breakfasts)
2. Homemade Butter Rolls for Thursday (Done and now cooling - will freeze them tonight)
3. Personal Size Pizza crusts (Maybe tomorrow)

Here's the Dinner Plan for this week:

Monday:
Leftovers from Sunday
Casserole, corn, salad, garlic bread

Tuesday:
Tuna Burgers - these are yummy! Almost like a crab cake sandwich.
Baked Potatoes
Coleslaw (left over from Saturday)

Wednesday:
Personal Size Pizzas

Thursday:
Turkey
Stuffing
Mashed Potatoes
Corn
Rolls
Cranberry Sauce
Gravy

Friday:
Turkey Noodle Soup

Saturday:
Turkey something?

Sunday:
More Turkey something?
(According to how much time I have!)
