This week is very hectic for us! I started back to school with teacher workdays & Open House. Grant has started a Fall Ball League with his baseball team, so the easier dinner plans are the HAPPIER this wife will be! :)
Also, we're planning Aubrey's 7th birthday party this Saturday. It's only a family dinner, but no party is too small. :) of course, she wanted a Gamecock theme! We've trained her well. ;) Just in time for the season to start. I will post pictures of decorations and the party! Great ideas to use for a Game day Party or tailgating!
Here's our menu plan for the week. Let me know if you have any questions. They are so easy I feel like they don't need much description.
Monday: Sausage & Veggie Grill
1lb. Of Kielbasa Sausage (we use the turkey)
1 green pepper cut into slices
1 onion cut into slices
1 large or 2 small zucchini cut into slices
2 squash cut into slices

Foil
Combine all ingredients in foil. Cover it on top with foil as well. Throw on the grill on medium heat for 30 minutes or bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. EASY!

This is a NEW favorite in the Kirkendohl household. Do your prep the night before & it's so simple (even the hubby can cook it.)

1 French Loaf
2 cups of Marinara Sauce (3/4 jar)

Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
Thursday: Quesadillas, Black Beans & Rice
Tortillas
2 cups Shredded Cheese
Inside ingredients: onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, shrimp,shredded chicken.

Friday: Grilled Chicken, Macaroni & Cheese, Lima Beans
4 chicken breast
Blackened seasoning
Box of Macaroni & Cheese ( we use whole wheat)
