Merciful God, You are great in compassion and Your tenderness for us is without measure. We ask You to give us today our daily bread, and also provide for the needs of all of Your hungry children around the world. Through Christ Your Son and Our Lord. Amen.

Weekly Menu


I'm a day or two late here. A busy weekend had me planning meals at the last minute, something I avoid at all cost. So, I'm throwing together a menu using pantry items, and what's in the freezer, as much as possible. We're traveling for a funeral tomorrow, so I won't have time for shopping until at least Tuesday, more likely Wednesday. But, I think we'll manage -- especially with one meal from last week's menu that we didn't eat.

Monday
Dinner: Slow Cooker Pepper Steak, brown rice, roasted cauliflower

Tuesday
Lunch: Cheese Quesadillas with avocado
Dinner: Ham and Veggie Pasta

Wednesday
Lunch: baked potatoes
Dinner: Sesame Grilled Chicken, Carrot and Sweet Potato Puree, Brussel Sprouts Almandine, tossed salad

Thursday
Lunch: soup and sandwich
Dinner: Beans and (low-fat beef) wieners, Cornbread

Friday
Lunch: bagels and cream cheese
Dinner: Salmon Patties, Macaroni and Cheese, green peas

* Tried and true
* New to me

Barbara, your blog is great! I have already used many of your recipes and they are yummy!!! What do you put on your baked potatoes for lunch? I am always at a loss for lunch ideas.

God bless you and your family!

Zina,
Usually they are just butter and sour cream or light cream cheese (especially for the kids). But sometimes I make a cheese sauce and steam veggies.
