Meal Plan Monday


It's Monday again, which means it is time for meal plans. Last week's plan was pretty much spot on. As I mentioned I tried some new recipes and they were pretty good. The stir fry I made was really good but there was way too much sauce. Last night I tried a new meatloaf recipe and it was also really good. Instead of going out for dinner on Saturday night we decided to roast a turkey breast, make some gravy, and also roast some carrots. It was fantastic. 

This week's menu is not particularly exciting, but we are trying to get back on track with eating healthier. All but one of our meals this week are pretty healthy. We have decided to try to plan at least one meal during the week to be meatless. We tend to eat a lot of meat so we wanted to try some new recipes without it.

  1. What do you marinate the chicken in? Tim is always using beer but I'm looking for some other marinades.

  2. We marinate chicken with many things. Sometimes I mix together soy sauce, a little brown sugar, garlic, ginger, black pepper, and some oil. Sometimes we use the McCormick's marinade packets or even a bottled marinade.
