Welcome to Menu Planning Monday! Here I plan out easy, healthy meals for the week so that you don’t have to.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The last couple of weeks have been a little out of the norm around here, and thus my meal planning has been a little non-existent. And with my husband out of town for a week, the kiddos and I ate the random things we could throw together with what we already had in the house.<\/p>\n

Do you cook when your significant other is out of town? I sure don’t! Well, things like spaghetti, grilled cheese, and macaroni. All of which was served during his week of absence. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

We made an unplanned grocery run when he returned home, and since I didn’t plan out my week yet, I didn’t have a grocery list. At all. So, I planned this week’s meals based on two dinners I knew all of the ingredients for, and chose the last one based on the ingredients I knew we already had.<\/p>\n

So, here is what we are having this week!<\/p>\n

Monday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kielbasa, Onion, Pepper and Potato Hash<\/a><\/p>\n

I make this one often. I sub russet potatoes for sweet potatoes, and our whole family enjoys this one.<\/p>\n

The Two Bite Club<\/p>\n

\"kielbasa-hash-2\"<\/p>\n

Tuesday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Baked Balsamic Chicken<\/a><\/p>\n

I love balsamic anything and have high hopes for this one.<\/p>\n

Creme de la Crumb<\/p>\n

\"baked-balsamic-chicken-16-1-680x1020\"<\/p>\n

Wednesday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Date Night = Kids get grilled cheese and tomato soup<\/p>\n

Thursday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taco Bowl with Avocado Lime Dressing\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

We LOVE THIS ONE. I don’t make the rice and add black beans and chicken for lots of protein. YUM.<\/p>\n

Super Healthy Kids<\/p>\n
