Menu for the Week: Generous Parents Edition

Here is our menu for the next week or so. I have to confess that our meals look so wonderful simply because of my wonderful parents, who have taken to giving us a roast now and then, along with other delectables at odd moments. This really helps our food budget! (My dad is not a fan of beans, and he pities us because of how often beans figure into our diet. This is funny, because we enjoy beans. But we also enjoy roast! Thanks, Mom and Dad!)

This week they gave us Mexican soup left over from lunch at church, some chicken nuggets and, of course, the roast, which we are very excited about. I know we should not love red meat so much, but, alas, we do. As Mr. Honey says, "If God hadn't meant for us to eat animals, why'd He make'em out of meat?"

Monday: chicken noodle soup

Tuesday: Mexican soup

Wednesday: Rigatoni with meat sauce

Thursday: Bean soup with biscuits (we didn't eat this freezer meal last week)

Friday: Pot Roast with potatoes and salad

Sunday: Salsafied chicken and rice
