January has been a weirldy busy month.  We were buried in school trying to wrap up the semester, our co-op started and Darryl and I got really involved in music at our church "all of a sudden".  So I haven't had a lot of extra time (or brain cells after doing school for hours upon hours) to focus on much else!  This week we have some days off from school so I am hoping to get "caught up" a little and maybe get my plan in place for February!  One thing that always stays constant is that we have to eat HA!  The grocery store trip last week kept getting pushed ahead due to not having a vehicle but it is kind of amazing how much food you can use up in your house when you think you have "nothing to eat".  I also did a small, quick pick-up order to get water and other important things like Doritos. (HA!)  Anyway, this weeks plan is below and maybe I'll even stick to it this week!

Friday - We have our Co-Op again and I have found/learned that by the time dinner comes around I am done so it has to be really easy or we end up eating out. We are trying to not spend extra $ right now so it must be easy! This week it will be Chicken Pot Pies (nothing easier then just throwing them in the oven!).  I'm always at a loss of what to serve with Chicken Pot Pie since it isn't quite enough to fill us up.  Salad?  Maybe a cheese ball and crackers?  

Saturday - Dinner at my mom's! 

Sunday - BBQ Pulled Chicken (super easy in the crock pot), fries (we love them in the air fryer), and a veggie. 

Monday - Hamburger Strogenoff, Noodles, green beans, and crescent rolls

Tuesday - Dinnerly

Wednesday - Everyone goes their own direction for AWANA and Youth Group

Thursday - Dinnerly.

Welcome to another week of eating.  We enjoyed our first week of Dinnerly Meals and I'll share more about those in another post.  I'm already enjoying not needing to plan three meals a week AND I'm enjoying the smaller grocery store trips because of it.  With that in mind, here is the plan for the coming week:

Friday -A Dinnerly Meal - Steak and Fries! 

Saturday - We are having "linner" at my mom's :-)  Yes, that means we are gathering around 2:30 for our main meal.  

Sunday - Dr. Pepper Meatballs and Chili cheese dip (this has become a favorite Sunday meal!) 

Monday - Chicken Alfredo, Salad, and Garlic Bread

Tuesday - Dinnerly - Garlic Butter Shrimp and Mashed potatoes

Wednesday - We all go opposite directions so Nate will eat before AWANA, Josh eats at youth group, Darryl eats at home and I usually grab a sub sandwich while hanging out in my vehicle while Josh is at youth group!  It's crazy but good :-) 

Thursday - Dinnerly - Tex Mex Beef Tacos

 Trust me, I know this is a much anticipated post so I try not to miss it. 😂  I had hoped to have some other posts up documenting our adventures the last few weeks of 2021 but I haven't uploaded photos yet so I will get there!  BUT we always have to eat!  We get the blessing of a dinner subscription box again - this time through our on-line school.  They received a grant so we get 8 weeks, 3 meals a week starting this coming week.  I'm looking forward to it!  It will help the grocery bill and give us some different recipes to try during the long winter months!  

Here's the plan for this week:

Friday - Nate had his birthday party so it was Chicken Nuggets and Fries :-)  

Saturday - Dinner at my mom's. 

Sunday - Josh has a Sunday School pizza party right after church so I believe that Darryl, Nate and I are going to grab McDonald's after dropping Josh off.  

Monday - BBQ Cups and French Fries

Tuesday - If my first Dinnerly box arrives on time we will have one of those recipes otherwise it will be tacos

Wednesday - Dinnerly! 

Thursday - Dinnerly! 


As I did with Hello Fresh, I'll share the good, bad, and gross :-) LOL
