Guest Menu Plan by Abby
Abby is a proud Oregonian at heart (Hey, Sweet Home!) who now permanently resides in rural Mississippi (the local grocery store really is Piggly Wiggly). She loves hunting monsters with her kids, playing golf with her husband, and learning cool new slang from her high school students. Abby blogs at Winstead Wandering.
My husband and I are teachers, and this time of year always seems especially crazy. Between chaperoning overnight trips and enduring end-of-the-year chaos (here in Mississippi, school gets out in May), “easy” is the number one criteria for a meal to make it onto our menu plan.
We don’t have any allergies or special dietary needs in our family. I do try to prepare at least a couple meals each week that will provide us with leftovers to take to school as lunches, and I don’t want us to eat total crap. Because my husband and our two toddlers are pretty picky, I try to keep things simple.
Here’s what’s for dinner at my house this week:
Monday — Sausage & Tortellini
Tuesday — Tacos
Wednesday — Weeknight Chicken Stir-Fry
Thursday — Copycat Taco Bell Mexican Pizzas (with leftover taco meat)
Friday — Blueberry Pie Pancakes
Saturday — Garlic Parmesan Chicken
Sunday — Sausage, Egg, & Cheese Crescent Roll Bake

Looks delicious! Thank you! BTW, Piggly Wiggly was always in WA growing up (in no way a southern only thing).
That’s crazy! I never knew that. I just know that all my Oregonian friends thought Piggly Wiggly was something made up for Steel Magnolias or Sweet Home Alabama.
I just bookmarked the chicken and pancakes and hope to put them on our next menu!
