Menu Plan for Saturday, January 14th through Wednesday, January 25th

OK folks, several people have suggested that we put our menu plans on here.  I think that's a great idea!  I LOVE looking at other people's menu plans.  Besides getting new recipes, I also get new ideas of different foods to pair with each other.  Sometimes looking at someone else's menu plan really helps to pull me out of a rut.
We fly by the seat of our pants around here, so plans change.  A LOT.  So I try to always have a few quick and easy things in the house.  Try as I might, I never seem to end up following my menu plan exactly - at least not yet.  But I'm working on it.  Menu plans really are a good way to help keep your budget under control.  If there are meals that don't end up getting made on the day they were planned for I just try to move them to the next pay period.
I'll go ahead and tell you that we do a hamburger or sub sandwhich or some other fast food on Wednesday nights.  Wednesday nights are jam-packed.  I'm also BIG on leftovers.  I love making a meal that can go for 2 nights!  That's a little extra relaxation time for me.  I'm not ashamed to say it.  ;)
