Menu plan for the week of September 15

Hey, all. Our current meal challenge?  We need to leave the house by 5 pm, four days a week, and by 6 pm on the 5th.  Leaving at 5 means we have to eat at 4:30.  But no one's hungry at 4:30.  And we don't get home until 8, at which time showers must be taken and beds gone to.  But we soldier on... And no one has actually died of hunger just yet.

This week we're having guests.  Which is good, because guests can put the meatloaf in or whatever as I'm shuttling kiddos to activities.  At least they won't go hungry.

Here's what's on the menu this week.

Supper:
--fend for yourself/supper at Cub Scouts
--Hot beef sandwiches, carrots, salad
--Southwest chicken and beans, corn, salad
--Spaghetti with marinara & meatballs, spaghetti squash, green beans, salad
--Grilled chicken, spinach & strawberry salad, grilled asparagus
--Turkey wild rice meatloaf (and a beef/sausage meatloaf for the less adventurous among us), mashed potatoes, corn, green beans, peaches
--Grilled Pork chops with portobellos in red wine sauce, grilled broccoli, applesauce
--Pesto grilled chicken skewers, grilled veggie skewers, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots
--Beef or chicken tacos with corn or flour tortillas, taco toppings, black bean & corn salad, pears
