I had trouble deciding what to put on the menu plan. Friday it was 70 degrees and a beautiful spring day. Then yesterday, which was the first day of spring, it started snowing, and snowing, and snowing.
So right now, we have quite a bit of snow, but by Tuesday it is supposed to be back up in the high 60′s. I don’t think I will ever get used to the crazy weather in Oklahoma. Today, I feel like putting soup and chili on the menu plan, but by the end of the week, I will probably feel like grilling outside.
On top of the crazy weather I have a really busy week. So, I picked mainly quick and easy meals.
Here is the plan.
Breakfast
waffles
oatmeal squares ( I never got these made last week)
smoothies and cereal
Dinner
taco pasta bake
breakfast for dinner
spinach souffle
pizza and fruit salad
mexican rice and nacho chicken bake bake (I am taking these to a church dinner)

I love to cook and bake, and it is a good thing, because my family loves to eat. I live with my husband and three kids on 43 acres in Northeastern Oklahoma. Between homeschooling, helping in my husband’s dental office, working on our property, taking care of three dogs, and raising hogs as a side job/hobby, I am constantly on the go like most of you.
Lynn your menu looks great. I need to try the grits in the slow cooker. I do my oatmeal that way so I am excited to try the grits. Only my son and I eat grits but that is still ok. The Pizza Quiche looks really good and so does the taco soup.

I have to try that quiche! Each time I see it, I’m reminded it needs to make an appearance on our menu

I see taco soup all the time on menus, and I have yet to try it. I think I might try it out next week, hopefully its something we all can enjoy.

I will definitely try your pepperoni pizza quiche, Lynn! I love anything crustless (or flourless) … it just makes gluten free so easy.
Everything else looks great, too!
Thanks,
Shirley

I made the crockpot grits last night for breakfast this morning and the were delish! Best grits I ever made. I didn’t put them in a seperate bowl because I couldn’t find one that would fit. So I added another 1/2 cup of water and all the butter : ) . They were great! Thanks.

Lynn…I hear you about the crazy Oklahoma weather! I live in Choctaw, just east of Oklahoma City. How about you? Although I love the snow, the kids were super excited to go outside to play today. Gonna give your Cheese Bread/Biscuits a try this evening…I’m drooling already! Thanks so much for all the great recipes you share…Keep it coming! Erin
The taco soup looks absolutely delicious! Have a great week!
