Menu Swap Sunday Week One

Menu Swap Sunday Week One

My best friend, Angela, at Unexpected Elegance had the great idea of getting together a menu swap.  This is so helpful because I'm always looking for new things to add to our dinner routine.  I'll have to admit that Angela and I think alike because a few of her menu items are what I had in mind for the week.  Head over to Angela's blog to check out more menu ideas :)

Monday: 
Lemon Pepper Tilapia.  I buy a big package of Tilapia fillets at Sam's Club.  I take the fillets in their package and run it under warm water to help it thaw.  I put a few tablespoons of butter in a pan and place the Tilapia fillets in the frying pan.  While the Tilapia is in the pan I sprinkle on lemon pepper seasoning to taste.  When the fish is flaky you know it's ready.  It only takes a few minutes and everyone in my house loves this easy meal.  I like to serve it with salad.

Tuesday:
Taco Tuesdays.  It's my easy go-to meal.

Wednesday:
Pork Tenderloin.  I like to cook mine in the Crock Pot with a package of dry onion soup mix and a can of golden mushroom soup.  Serve with sweet potato fries.

Thursday:
Leftovers from Wednesday's meal

Friday:
Red Beans and Rice with Sausage

*The menu is a plan, but like any plan it is subject to change. I wish I were this organized and prepared, but sometimes I don't stick to the menu because life happens. I wouldn't want anyone to be overly impressed and think I'm always this prepared and industrious.
