Sunday Meal Plan October 4-10 #Blogtober

 Meal Planning is a great way to save time and money, every week!




Welcome to the first Sunday Meal Plan post, from Mom, the Lunch Lady. I will be honest and say that I stopped meal planning when my SO and I moved in together about 2 yrs ago. While he isn't a picky eater, I was still trying to figure out his likes and dislikes. So our dinners often consisted of foods he was used to eating and I threw in easy meals when he was at work. Our work schedules are opposite, so during the week he is not home for dinner. 

Since the pandemic, I've noticed that I am spending more on groceries, and that I have a lot of food sitting in my pantry that I am not touching. Since I'm not sure when I will be returning to work (I've been off since March!) and money is a little tight, I though this would be the perfect time to start meal planning again. Plus I like having a list to choose from, instead of standing in front of the fridge at 5pm, hoping dinner will make itself. 

Here is the plan for this week



  • Chicken Cacciatore with Pasta
  • Crock Pot Ribs and Baked Potatoes, with corn on the cob
  • Eggplant Rollatini and Ceasar Salad


  • Leftover Fridge Clean Out
  • Cream of Broccoli Soup with Fresh Bread
  • Breakfast for dinner- Pancakes with fruit, and Breakfast Sausages

No Yeast Old Fashion Cinnamon Rolls

 These delicious cinnamon sticky rolls have been in my family for over 40 yrs. No yeast is required, so you can whip up a batch of these in no time. Still tender, sticky sweet and delicious! Ever since I can remember Mom would make these as a special treat. It wasn't too often, but every once in a while, we'd come home to these no yeast cinnamon rolls, as an after school snack. Growing up, this is what I thought cinnamon rolls were. I wasn't aware that there was a yeast version of cinnamon rolls. As much as I LOVE the yeast version, this no yeast version seems to make an appearance more frequently here at home.  Since there is no yeast in the dough, it does not need to rise for 30 minutes before being rolled out and baked. When I worked in the retirement home the residents were always excited when I made these cinnamon rolls. They said it reminded them of their childhood. It was amazing seeing how happy a simple recipe could make them. I don't make these very often and

50+ Creative Cottage Meal Ideas

When the warm weather hits many of us head to the cottage, to enjoy the sunshine and time near the water. Instead of always packing up burgers and hot dogs, I've rounded up over 50 creative meal ideas for delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Ever since I was little my family always enjoyed a few weeks camping at a near by provincial park, during the summer months. When us kids, became older and moved away, Mom and Dad bought a trailer which remained parked at a location, so we would often go and visit for a few weeks then too. My mom has always been an amazing cook and with her outside kitchen often made our family favourites, even at camp. Now that my SO and his family have a cottage, we are frequently there for most of the summer. Hamburgers and Hot Dogs seem to be our go to, so I wanted to collect new creative meals perfect to make while camping, or at the cottage.  Breakfast Recipes Healthy Banana Milkshake Thick, creamy banana milkshake made without ice cream, dairy, and

Sam & Cat Sloppy Waffles

 A nod to the popular preteen TV show Sam & Cat, these s loppy waffles pair classic sloppy joes with crisp waffles. Years ago, my daughter fell in love with a kids show called Sam and Cat. This show melds two shows the kids use to watch together. It stars Sam Puckett (Jennette McCurdy) from iCarly and Cat Valentine (Ariana Grande) from Victorious. It's a witty and fun show and the kids loved the hijinks these two girls get into every week. In one particular episode, they get stuck inside a secret room, they find in their apartment (which use to be Cat's Nonna's before she moved to Elderly Acres). While they are stuck in the secret room, Cat mentions her idea of Sloppy Waffles, which pairs waffles and sloppy joes. Sam falls in love with the idea and once they are rescued by their friend Goomer, the show ends with the girls enjoying Sloppy Waffles. We recently watched the episode on Netflix, and the kids commented that we should try to make Sloppy Waffles. I thought it wa
