A less inspiring meal plan, since 3 of these days we didn't/won't eat at home.
31 - Gram's Fried Chicken*, Steamed Broccoli, Carrot Sticks
1 - Youth For Christ KIX "Starry Night" fundraiser - i.e. hot dogs
2 - Turkey Marsala* Salad
3 - Church Picnic - we're bringing "Hamburger Cupcakes"
4 - Dijon Pork Medallions*, Green Beans, Mushroom Rice
5 - White Chicken Chili, Tortilla Chips
6 - Probably Leftovers
*Taste of Home, but Subscriber Exclusive
For lunch, about every other week, I make a pinto bean soup in the pressure cooker and then simmer off most of the liquid and serve it as bean burritos the next day. This is nice in so many ways - beans are cheap and low fat, and eating it twice makes it extra easy. Cooking in the pressure cooker always feels like I'm cheating the system. Plus, the kids like both meals. Yea Mom!

Mine don't eat beans that great...but I'd like to give it a try.
I didn't like beans as a child and I'm not sure why mine do, maybe it is because beans are so much a part of the culture here.
