With the weather as hot as it is this week, I’m trying to keep the boys indoors and cool. I’ll be running to the store in the evening for just the essentials. I decided to take stock of my freezer and pantry and see what meals I could make for this week. The change in the menu will help out with the budget too. Here are the changes to the menu:

7/9/07: Steak and Shrimp, Green Beans, and Rice
7/10/07: Lasagna, Green Beans, and Garlic Bread
7/11/07: Beef w/ Rice-A-Roni, Green Beans, and Hominy
7/12/07: Salmon Cakes, Corn, and Rice
7/13/07: Chicken Nuggets, Mac and Cheese, Fries
7/14/07: Grilled Chicken, Fried Rice, and Green Beans

I had all of the items stockpiled, which makes for easy menu planning. I hope that we get a break in the hot weather soon.
