Menu Monday

We're right in the middle of a HUGE project in our yard involving lots of stone blocks and sand, so dinners will be pretty quick and easy this week.  Here's what we're having...

Mon: French Onion Soup Casserole



I love french onion soup. It's so cheesy and oniony and delicious. I also love casseroles. They are easy and warm and gooey. I'm hoping this will be as delicious as french onion soup. If so, I'll definitely be making it again.

Tues: Tomato Soup Mac and Cheese with a Salad



The last time I made mac and cheese it didn't exactly turn out right. I'm hoping that this version turns out better. It sounds a little weird to put tomato soup in maccaroni and cheese, but I think it's going to taste really good. Kind of like dipping a grilled cheese into tomato soup.

Wed: Crock Pot Sweet and Tangy Meatballs with Rice



I made these during the spring and KB liked them so much that he asked for them again. They are so easy and really do taste really good. I cut the recipe in half this time, so I'll probably put them in a dish down inside the Crock Pot instead of just in the Crock Pot itself so they don't overcook.

Thurs: Parmesan Basil Chicken Salad  (recipe on Pin)



Chicken salad and tuna salad are my jams. They are so creamy and delicious and wonderful. Our neighbor gave me a ton of lemon basil and regular basil and I need to use it up. I think this will be a delightful way!

Extras:

Cinnamon French Toast Bake



I'm not a huge fan of french toast. I think it's because I'm not a huge fan of syrup. I really like cinnamon rolls though. I made this yesterday morning for breakfast and it was really good. I used just regular milk instead of heavy cream and it turned out fine.

What will you be eating this week???
