Weekly Menu - June 19

I think this is the trend - posting the menu on Monday :)

Here is what I think we're going to eat this week.  Seems like last week was a little off.  The House Party threw me off I guess :)

I have toyed around with the idea of doing 'theme' days.  I was struggling last night with trying to decide what to cook, and I thought if each day of the week had a theme, then maybe I could narrow down my massive recipe collection to a certain area.  So, I'm going to try this.  Not sure it will stick, but its worth a shot! And by giving it a theme I'm not saying I have to 100% stick to it - if things work out and I have to switch stuff, then I have to switch it :)  I'm not that OCD!

Here's what I have:

Sunday (Breakfast Night): Breakfast Tacos with Homemade Potato Hash

Monday (Sandwich Night): Fried Green Tomato Shrimp Po'boys (this is going to be ambitious!); Onion Rings

Tuesday (Italian Food Night): Homemade Pizza

Wednesday (On-the-Go Night): Ham & Egg Sandwiches; Chips

Thursday (Mexican Food Night): Burritos; Jalapeno Lime Refried Beans

Friday (All-American Night): Grilled Portabello & Cheese Sandwiches; Sweet Potato Fries

Saturday (Grill Night): Grilled Fish of the Week; Grilled Fresh Vegetables

Hope these make it.  I really like what I plan and then get disappointed when life moves to fast and I can't keep up.  Hopefully these theme nights will make it a little more fun for me.

I will also keep doing my budgeting for each meal.  I am setting my limit @ $125 this week - finding out quickly that $100 didn't get it done.  Hope that works!

Let me know what yall are eating!  I love hearing what other people are cooking in their kitchen :)
