Menu Plan: Week of May 24

by MommySnacks: Andrea on May 24, 2010

I will be sharing more of our first “official” week doing more organic/natural foods. It was painless and I’m still alive!! And, a positive note, I actually cooked more last week since I had my plan. I’ll admit I didn’t do all 5 days of meal plans. I’m taking baby steps to get back into [...]

by MommySnacks: Andrea on May 18, 2010

Last week, I posted this on Twitter and Facebook, but thought I should ask for your help here too :)
As summer break comes, I need to have a game plan for quick and easy lunch ideas for the boys. Two of the boys have nut allergies so that eliminates any quick PB sandwiches. Here are [...]

January Menu Plan

by MommySnacks: Andrea on January 6, 2010

I’m trying something different in the new year. I am going to menu plan out the month.  I typically have done weekly menu plans.  Honestly it has been because it’s easier to throw together on Sunday night with what I have in the fridge.

Menu Plan: Week of December 7

by MommySnacks: Andrea on December 7, 2009

So, last week I did do a few meals on the menu plan. You know, I started the week off bad because I was planning on making chicken the first night and I didn’t thaw it out. And, something about defrosting chicken in the microwave weirds me out. So, we had the good old stand [...]

So, as I mentioned in my Menu Plan this week, I did a once a month cook.  It happened yesterday.
All of my past freezer cooking has primarily been breakfast items. Simply because that is what I’m comfortable with. But, I did branch out and do a few more things this time.
Crockpot Brown Rice
The first thing [...]

YES, you are in the right place! I know it has been a LONG time since I posted a Menu Plan. Let me just tell you I fell off the wagon. Well, we ate and all but I wasn’t too organized about it. I am getting back into it, and got the kids involved in [...]

Party Veggie Pizza

by MommySnacks: Andrea on November 10, 2009

This past weekend, I hosted a jewelry party (which I will share more in a bit).  With these little gatherings, I realize my appetizer repertoire is rather slim.  But, several of the recipes I made were a hit, so I decided I would share one:  Party Veggie Pizza.
The thing I like about Veggie Pizza is [...]
