Menu Plans: 8/17-8/29

In an effort to keep on top of things at home after returning to work full-time last week, I've tried including a balance of crockpot and freezer meals.  It's going to take me a month or so to get into a good rhythm with these changes, but the need to watch the food budget is keeping me motivated right now.

8/17: Grill:  bratwurst and marinated tilapia
8/18:  Vegetarian Chili Ole (crockpot)
8/19:  Buffalo Chicken Mac (Quinoa) & Cheese (cooked and froze chicken and quinoa ahead of time and assembled day of)
8/20:  GF Meatloaf and Potatoes (crockpot - Made meatloaf and froze ahead of time.  Great new recipe!)
8/21:  Frozen Pizza
8/22:  Leftovers
8/23:  Ate at Festival of Nations
8/24:  Still plenty of leftovers :)
8/25:  Creamy Key Lime Chicken Enchiladas (Made ahead of time for the freezer)
8/26:  Southwestern Quinoa (made ahead of time for the freezer) and chicken sausages
8/27:  French Bread Pizzas (regular, vegetarian, and GF versions)
8/28:  Leftovers or fast food
8/29:  Filets with Sour Cream and cheese
