Our Meal Plan For January

January tends to be very cold here in beautiful Boise, Idaho.  It makes me want to cook a lot of hot and nourishing soups to comfort and warm us.  My family enjoys a really good and flavorful soup.  Paired with homemade bread or biscuits and a nice fresh and crisp salad makes for a delicious well rounded meal.

I usually make a weekly soup meal throughout the year, however, when the weather is bitterly cold outside I tend to make hot soups more often.  Another benefit of these simple meals is that I save a little money on the grocery budget.  Soup is a terrific budget stretcher.

Our meal plan for January is as follows:

Taco Soup, Cornbread w/ Honey Butter, Garden Salad

Cheese Omelet, Toast, Sliced Peaches

Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Potato Chips, Baby Carrots

Asian Beef Noodle Soup, Cabbage Salad

Buffalo Chicken Pizza, Garden Salad

Salisbury Steak & Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans

Pork Verde, Steamed Rice, Black Beans, Lettuce, Cheese, Sour Cream, Salsa

Thai Curry Soup

Baked Pasta & Sausage, Steamed Broccoli

Chicken Corn Chowder, Biscuits, Garden Salad

Pork Fired Rice, Cabbage Salad

Steak Fajitas, Sour Cream, Spanish Rice

Lentil Soup, Dinner Rolls, Garden Soup

Meat Loaf, Baked Potatoes, Roasted Carrots

Tortellini Soup, Garden Salad

Whole Wheat Waffles, Scrambled Eggs, Syrup, Bananas

Black Bean Soup, Corn Bread, Cabbage Salad

Chicken Enchiladas, Garden Salad

Sounds like a good plan to me and the girls heartily agree.  They better, they helped me make this plan. 😃
