Getting back on the menu horse.  Last week was full of defiance, and sorrow, and other things that have nothing to do with menu planning.  It all just resulted in me having very limited energy to meal plan.  Can anyone guess what happens when I do not meal plan?  Suffice it to say…nothing good.

Since I did not update you last week, I thought I would sneak in this gem. On Halloween, I brought some real food snacks for Trevor’s Halloween party.  It clearly was a HIT with the pinterest stalkers, because there was another mom that brought the same thing!  Ha!  (Stems are kiwi, and the ghost eyes are cocao nibs)

Another win during my week of defiance was these ever so delicious and simple pumpkin granola bars.    PS, who says you can only make pumpkin things in the fall?!?!   These pumpkin swirl bars are in my very near future!

Here is what we have on the menu for this week:

Sunday: Turkey chili in the crock pot

Monday: Left over chili

Tuesday:  Honey mustard chicken with  cheesy broccoli orzo

Wednesday:  Sauteed scallops and quinoa with orange/avocado salsa 

Thursday:  Bacon, avocado and tomato omelet

Friday:  Pulled pork tacos. (Home made tortillas!)  Should have more than enough to freeze for leftovers!

Saturday:  Left over tacos

Hope everyone has a great week!
