Sunday Meal Plan Nov 15-21

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

Happy Sunday!! I'm a little glad the week is over. The gorgeous warm weather has left us once again, so I feel like I am back into hibernation mode. It wasn't an overly busy week, but Thursday night I started not feeling so well. About once every 2 months or so, I happen to eat something that doesn't agree with my Crohn's disease. So I spent Thursday night, through to Saturday evening in pain. I'm feeling 100% today, so am planning on making a huge roast beef dinner.

This upcoming week is going to be spent organising the house. I hope to grab some paint, so we can finally paint the entrance way and hall leading to the living room. Before moving in (this past April) we painted the living room and all the bedrooms, but told ourselves we would paint the entrance way and hallway, after moving in. It's yet to happen and Christmas will be here before you know it, so I'd like to get it done. 

Here is my meal plan for the week. It's a very loose one because I haven't done any grocery shopping yet. Things may change, but it they don't, this is my plan with what I have on hand.

  • Roast beef, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas & corn, homemade honey oat bread and poorman's pudding for dessert.
  • Asian Glazed Chicken Meatballs, with homemade Lo Mein
  • BLT sandwiches with veggies and dip/hummus
  • Sweet Potato, Coconut and Ginger Root Soup (new recipe) with biscuits
  • Meatball Bubble Bake with a tossed salad
  • Stir Fry veggies (bean sprouts, mushrooms, carrot, celery, onion) with sauteed shrimp
  • Lefover night, clean out the fridge
I'm sharing my meal plan menu over at Menu Plan Monday!

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...
