Links:
* Mon: http://www.recipezaar.com/Crock-Pot-Creamy-Italian-Chicken-19859 (I marinate my chicken in italian dressing overnight before making this as it really enhances the flavor; I also omit the mushrooms just because I rarely have them in the house.)
* Tues: http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Scalloped-Potatoes-and-Pork-Chops
* Wed: no real recipe; garlic mashed potatoes are the Ore-Ida ones from the bag, regular green bean casserole, and Pillsbury french bread from the refrig. section of grocery store (all of these items were purchased with coupons while on sale, so the cost is minimal)
* Thursday: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Stuffed-Chicken-with-Scalloped-Potatoes/Detail.aspx (I substituted au gratin potatoes for the scalloped potatoes)
* Friday: dunno yet - LOL~
* Saturday: http://www.box.net/shared/9k863668fs
* Sunday: again, dunno yet~

Great thing is that all the ingredients for these meals are in our kitchen already so I don't have to do any additional grocery shopping - WOOHOO!!!
There are LOTS of other weekly menus posted to inspire you at http://orgjunkie.com/
I hope that you, too, are inspired to plan your meals for the week.
Many blessings and happy "eats"!!
