{Not So} Manic Monday Meal Plan

It’s Monday!

Time to map out our meals for the week.

In case you missed last week, let’s catch up. Sugar Dish Me and Lemons for Lulu have teamed up to give you a week full of ideas every Monday. Seven days, seven dinners {Plus a dessert!!}. No more kitchen-block, no more stressing about what to cook for dinner! We’ve also made it easy to save the recipes you want to try with the Recipe Box at the top of the page.

I don’t know about you but sometimes, especially during the week, I’m just plain old stumped on what to feed my family and I get bored with the same old things — problem solved! Annnnd since this is still new we want to hear from you! Please let us know about the kinds of meals & recipes you’d like to see in the comments below. To find meal plans from weeks past just look for the Meal Plan logo.

Roasted Tomato & Basil Soup

***Note: Last week some of you asked for meals that can be made ahead and frozen, AND for vegetarian options. Monday’s meal hits both of those!! The Roasted Tomato Basil Soup can be made ahead of time and it freezes very well! Also– what’s tomato soup without an amazing grilled cheese?***

You know I still have that soup recipe saved from last year so I can make it, but I haven't yet. Fail on my part.

Make it soon! Soup season is here! Anyway-- you have been the best kind of busy so you have great excuses for not cooking :)

All of these recipes look delicious, but the onion sandwich I think is my favorite.---Rachel

Thanks so much for responding to the request for make ahead options; you are awesome!!! I will be trying the tomato basil soup ASAP. I have a very picky eater but tomato soup is one of his favorites and too often I resort to canned varieties to save time. I will feel like a much better mom with this soup stocked in my freezer! Another bonus - I can use some of the late summer tomatoes from the community organic garden we are members of. I want to try all of these recipes, especially the pecan chicken salad. It looks fabulous.

Hi, AJ! Thank you so much! I realized after pulling this list together that I need to work on more freezer meals! So glad the soup worked out for you! Let me know how you like the things you try out-- and the feedback is always welcome! It really helps.
