Here is something to think about. When you plan your menu for the week think about your weekly activities. I didn’t do this last week and some of the meals I had planned didn’t work out because I wasn’t home in time to make them. This menu is sort of healthy, our grocery money is running low so some of the meals are pantry meals this week.
Breakfasts
pancakes, waffles, French toast, bagels, oatmeal, cold cereal
Lunches
sandwiches, muffins, fruit, veggies, cheese & crackers, smoothies, salads for me
Dinner
Monday- Steak, rice, and vegetables (carry over from last week)
Tuesday- Bean tacos and bean burritos, cornbread (pantry meal)
Wednesday- Chicken legs (recipe below), pierogies, green beans, salad
Thursday- Spaghetti, Salad, French Bread (pantry meal)
Friday- Not sure about this day, I would like to go to the Naval Academy to watch the Naval Academy Brigade of Midshipman Parade. If we are able to go, then we will probably just take snacks in the car.
Saturday- Pizza
Yummy Chicken Legs
4 Tbs melter butter
Mixed together in a bowl
3/4 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 teas paprika
1 teas garlic powder
salt and pepper to your liking
Chicken legs
Remove skin from chicken legs
Melt butter/ then dip the chicken legs in the melted butter
Then roll the legs in the bread crumb mixture
Baked in a greased pan for an hour @ 350 degrees
These are delicious and a huge hit with the kids.

Oh, this is exactly what I’m looking for. Jaden’s been wanting to do chicken kinda like this for his Saturday meal, but I hadn’t gotten around to looking for a good recipe. We’ll be using bonesless/skinless, but it should still work out okay. Thanks, Toni!

Yum! Looks like a great menu and a great week! We’ve been basing a lot of our meals around on-sale meat from that week or the week before along with pantry items as well! Trying to keep both meat and produce purchases under $2/pound – and we’re doing well (who knew that it only took 30 seconds to remove the skin from a chicken breast?
Have a great week!
