Monday- Frozen Pizza (I am all about easy, we are getting Kate's photo's taken by B4Photography today)
Tuesday- Jen's Mexican Lasagna, here is how I do it:
What you need:
2 cans of red enchilada sauce
1 package of flour tortilla's
1 pound ground beef
1 small can of corn
1 can of black beans
1 package of shredded cheddar cheese
Optional: diced red and green peppers
- Cook and drain the ground beef
- Return beef to skillet add corn, black beans, and peppers (I usually add garlic powder and ground cumin to season)
- In a 9 X 13 glass cooking pan add a little enchilada sauce
- Start layer with tortilla's torn in big pieces
- Layer 2 beef mixture
- Layer 3 top with cheese
- Layer 4 top with tortilla's
- Layer 5 top with enchilada sauce
- Continue layers until you run out of space or meat. Top the very top with tortilla's and enchilada sauce and top with cheese
- Cover with foil and Bake 375 for 35 minutes or until bubbly. I use a convection oven so cooking temps vary.
- Enjoy! We serve with chips and guacamole. This freezes really yum! I usually make a double batch and put on in the freezer.
Wednesday- Grill Burgers outside and French Fries (It is going to be 85 degrees!)
Thursday- Eating out with the kids or spaghetti and meatballs (frozen one's)
Friday- My dad is making his specialty of frying fresh fish, grilling corn and baked potato's

We will definitely be trying the Mexican Lasagna. It sounds delicious. Have a great spring break!:)
Hmm...just had a thought. Can you do a lunch version of this one day? Like lunch menu Monday? I'm generally okay with finding dinner stuff but lunch eludes me! I mean feeding her nuggets every day just doesn't sound like a good idea...
Great idea Jenny, I will add some kiddo friendly lunch ideas.
I'm making that Mexican lasagna...sounds good!
I think its fabulous that you planned your menu around the weather! I need to do that!
Mexican Lasagna was a hit. Even my toddler picked at it a bit and dipped his chips in it. Thanks so much for the recipe...so easy and good!!
