Menu Plan Monday-Oct. 4

Look, its actually being posted ON MONDAY!! YAY!

So I am in the process of cleaning out the freezer this week, due to the fact that I am participating in another freezer cooking day on Sunday. Our last one we did in June and it was quite successful! I know Amy and I both wish we had a chance to do it before then, but our schedules haven't allowed! Perhaps now that summer is over it will. Menu will be coming soon...

For this week I want to attempt my very first apple pie. I found a recipe last weekend for a Maple Apple Pie and now that I have concurred my fear of making pie crust, I want to give it a shot! Now the decision lies who will get the rest...either it will go into work with K or I'll bring it to my son's preschool. We don't really need a WHOLE apple pie and I still have apples, so I'm sure an apple crisp will be in the future.

Breakfast/Baking:
- Maple Apple Pie
-Baked Apple Oatmeal
-Coconut Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
-I also need something to bring into A's preschool for snack on wednesday...I want an impressive snack, but can't decide what! So if you have any ideas, feel free to pass them along. Last time I did cookies and perhaps something seasonal.

Dinner:
-Bleu Cheese Chicken Meatballs...either with a gravy or hot wing style
-Ginger Pork Chops
-Roast Chicken with Apple Cheddar Rice
-Tomato-y Beef and Pasta
-Baked Potato Soup(although I did use a different recipe this time)
-2 batches of chicken broth(cooking day)
-Cook 2 whole chickens(cooking day, but one is for dinner)
-Soak and cook black and white beans(cooking day)
-Roast 2 sugar pumpkins(cooking day)
