Weekly Meal Plan

So, every week I prepare a weekly meal plan. My plan differs a little from most of my fellow bloggers, though. I usually find 4-5 recipes that I plan to make for dinner the coming week because sometimes, I end up eating leftovers or a quick meal depending on what kind of school work I have to finish.

Here is the list of recipes I have for this week:

Potato and Cheddar Soup

Croque Monsieur- my own recipe

Baked Pasta with Ricotta

Steak Salad

It has been getting warmer lately, so I want to try to get in my recipes for cold-weather foods before summer (lasagnas, soup, etc.)

I am making the Baked Pasta Ricotta tonight. 

-Look forward to a post with my alterations to the recipe and a picture of the finished product! Yum!

Happy Eating!
