Food Plan Friday

 I have been meaning to get back to sharing a meal plan.
Though you may not like some or most of the plan,
 it may jog a memory of something that you haven't eaten in a while.
It might also encourage you to try something new or to incorporate a new ingredient.
I make my meal plan for Friday night through the next Friday noon because I shop on Friday morning.
Wednesday and Sunday nights are always breakfast because it is quick and easy as well as mild for sitting through church or when heading to bed within the hour.
Friday night is always Homemade Fast Food night (more of that later).

This week's plan:

Friday night: 
General Tsos Chicken (from Aldi) and Rice


Saturday: 
Smoothies and muffins
Blaze Pizza (still using a Christmas gift card)

Sunday:
Smoothies and muffins
Leftover Brussel Sprout Salad 
Eggs, toast, and turkey sausage 

Monday:
Smoothies and muffins
Veggie burgers with sauteed mushrooms and onions 
Salmon Bites, Brussel Sprouts, Rice 

Tuesday:
Smoothies and muffins
Salad
Quinoa Pasta Salad (maybe some chicken on the side)

Wednesday:
Smoothies and muffins
Leftover Quinoa Pasta Salad
Breakfast for dinner

Thursday:
Smoothies and muffins
Salad

Friday:
Smoothies
Leftover (or sardines, crackers, and side salad)

One of our favorite routines is "fast food night."
In Oregon, it was often gluten-free breaded fish and fries (Long John Silvers).
We also do Chick-fil-A night with chicken tenders and waffle fries or chicken tender salad.
Sometimes we do an enchilda or burrito (Chipotle or Taco Bell).
Sometimes it is pizza night.
Last week, we had a delicious Big Mac Salad. (McDonalds).
Sometimes we have milkshake and fries (Wendy's frosty and fries)
And tonight was  General Tsos (PF Changs or Pei Wei).

Are there any great fast foods that we are missing?





By making the meal at home, we save a little money,
we can control some of the ingredients,
and portion control is much easier.
