Easy Weekly Family Dinner Menu / Meal Plan Week 2

This week in Mrs. Kane's Kitchen...

While I didn't get this posted as early as I had hoped to, here is the next installment of family dinner ideas. Here in Delaware, the weather is just on the edge of turning into full-blown Autumn, and I am trying to push it right over the edge with a few cool weather favorites mixed in with the standard weeknight fare.

Sunday

Homemade beef stew, a fresh French baguette, and blueberry coffee cake

Monday

Savory roasted chicken breasts, green beans, apple-sausage dressing, and dinner rolls

Wednesday

Thursday

Garlic and herb roasted pork loin served with the Pioneer Woman's Crash Potatoes

Friday

Chicago style grilled hot dogs, fresh fruit, and potato chips

Saturday

Soup and sandwiches

Pot Roast - the perfect one pot meal

Sunday night supper: Pot roast, and mashed potatoes and gravy Pot roast is a great choice for lazy Sundays when you want a special meal, but you don't want all the work.

The fact that they're still around is just a testimony to how tasty they are. In fact, every country in the world has some kind of dumpling as part of it's cuisine.
