27 Weeks 1 Day Pregnant

7/23-7/29 Menu Plan

I'm EARLY!  (-;

I feel like we haven't even had dinner at home once this week!  It's been crazy... a wedding (thanks, hubs for telling me about that one!), a baseball game/girls night out, a night where I was not up to cooking... needless to say there will be a lot of repeat meals from last week as we didn't use them.

  • Calzones* (this was requested many times to show)
  • Turkey Chili* (again, a very requested item)
  • Veggies Burgers, Spinach & Potato Wedges
  • Shake & Bake, Salad & Mashed Potatoes
  • Turkey & Spinach Lasagna & Bread sticks
  • Dessert (well, it's my contribution… were BBQing at a friend's house and I am in charge of the sweets! :-)
  • Dinner with my Parents

Hope you have a great week!

*there will be how-to/recipe videos posted on my YouTube Channel, CandidMommy, next week as I make them (= 

If you have any other requests please just let me know!

I hope you all have a fantastic week!!!

7/10-7/16 Meal Plan

Here is this week's menu plan... Sorry it's late!!  Last week's Grocery & Meal video is uploading now!

  • (Sunday night we had one of last week's meals)
  • Balsamic Chicken Sandwiches & a Veggie
  • Calzones & Cesar Salad
  • Chicken Chili with Cornbread (this meal is getting funny- although last week I did have everything out but we ended up BBQing instead-I blame my husband!)
  • Chicken Picadillo over Quinoa
  • Spaghetti, Salad & Garlic Bread
  • Friday- dinner with my parents


We kind of meshed weeks this weekend and some things flip flopped but overall over last week and this week the menu plans pretty much match up.  We also grocery shopped early (Thursday instead of my normal Saturday) so that opened up more options (-:

7/2-7/8 Meal Plan

I just realized that my blog is getting boring!  I had to look back at an old post and saw how much I used to blog… it's like vlog more blog less or blog more vlog less- ugh.  Hopefully I can find a happy medium!  In the meantime here is what is on the menu for next week.  Kind of boring… I was trying to use up some things we already had.

  • Tortellini with Alfredo sauce, Salad & Cheese bread
  • A Freezer Meal & a TBD Veggie
  • Chicken Chili & Cornbread (I keep forgetting to put this in the crock pot…next week… next week!)
  • Turkey Burgers, Corn on the Cob & Pasta
  • Breaded Tilapia, Crab Cakes, Rice & A TBD Veggie
  • 4th of July (we usually order a pizza and eat it in the back of our truck while we wait for the fireworks)
  • Dinner with my parents on Friday

Hope you guys are doing well!  (=
