Weekly Menu 10/11/11

Alright here we go a second attempt (since having the baby) at using a menu for the week. We went out of town for the weekend, but we only ate one meal out last week on Sunday afternoon. That was the first time we had gone out to eat since we had our daughter 4 weeks prior. It was an experience, but we got through it and I don't think we will be taking our 3 children (our oldest will be 3 in December) out to eat again for a few more weeks.

Last week we made 3 of the 5 dinner recipes I had planned and for the week  and my husband only cooked twice so I'm getting closer. Stuffed pork roast was a hit, and I made 2 and froze the second one so we will be having that in the weeks to come.

Traveling out of the way and assuming I ever get to sleep again here is what is on the menu for this week.

Only planning for 5 days for this weeks grocery trip. Should get us through til Saturday.
