Michelle's Menu - Week of 3/20

Glad Beth managed a pretty healthy week because I have been on a self-sabotaging downward spiral for a while now. Back on the bandwagon though. Even got myself a Fitbit Alta to kick things into gear.

We had a really fun weekend - Amelia's friend Violet invited us and her other friend Charlotte to the butterfly museum and brunch afterwards. Just the girls and the moms. It was fun. Then yesterday after church I took the girls to afternoon tea at the Drake Hotel. Will is building the deck in our backyard. By himself. That's all I'll say about that...

Last night I made our second Blue Apron dinner for the week - Chicken Milanese. I also made a twist on the Korean Beef that Beth posted. I  make it about 1x per month, but last night I had an extra bag of broccoli slaw (broccoli, cabbage, carrots). I added that in to get more veggies out of it. We'll just have that as leftovers one night or I'll bring it in for lunch. So this week....

Monday: Leftovers or order in. Mondays...

Tuesday: Pomegranate Braised Brisket and roasted broccoli but I'm doing brisket in the slow cooker

Wednesday: Date Night got moved to Wednesday this week. Will and I are out. The girls will eat chicken nuggets or soup.

Thursday: Poblano and mushroom tacos + leftover brisket. I can't get enough of these. It's super fast to pull together and since we have to teach the baptismal prep class, I'll whip these up for me and Will after the family leaves. Leftovers are also amazing with eggs over easy.

Friday: Skillet Turkey Meatballs that Lou posted a few weeks ago. Can't wait to try!

If I'm good all week then I'll treat myself and the girls to a donut on Saturday before soccer and swim classes. Goals.

For Easter Sunday I made us brunch reservations at a really good restaurant that is also setting up an egg hunt and activities for the kids. So excited :)
