Menu PLAN Monday

Notice the emphasis in the title of the word "Plan." I did this on purpose. Last week we didn't stick to the plan. Regardless of this fact, having a plan is better than NOT having a plan. As I always say, when you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Most times, that's so very true!

However, you will see that although I AM a planner in almost every aspect of my life, I am not so inflexible that we can't change the meal plans and so sometimes--we do. And, I'm so very okay with that. So, this week's menu will have some repeats but it's because of several factors: a) our "gifted" meals fed quite more than one day's worth of servings and b) our extra-curricular plans took a little longer and thus, we ate out, got take-out or ordered delivery.

L: Sonic (special request by the little people)
D: Grilled balsamic chicken, brown rice, steamed broccoli with cheese, salad and homemade chocolate chip cookies
