What's For Dinner?

I made pasta sauce yesterday, so we will likely have it with spagatini and meatballs.

I bought 4 family packs of lean ground beef from Sobeys yesterday for $3.99/lb, plus bonus airmiles. I am going to turn 2 or 3 packages into meatballs today and bake them in the oven. I like having pre-cooked meatballs in the freezer, it helps with nights when I am busy or tired. It can also help us avoid eating out extra. I'm 22wks pregnant with the twins, so I'm hoping to have cooked meatballs in the freezer as I get bigger and when the twins arrive. We aren't big casserole or soup eaters, so I'll have to keep thinking about other food things I can prepare in advance.

Pork meatballs in mushroom sauce, over pasta, with salad.

Liver and onions :):)

Beef Stew and dumplings.

Angela-I am so impressed with all the energy you still have with this twin pregnancy, your little one and work-you go girl. And Granger too what with your pregnancy, little ones, work, course etc. And of course I get worn out reading about what the Energizer bunny( aka FBM) can accomplish in a lunch hour or evening-no offence FBM!! Lol-clearly I am not quite as young as some of you ladies but never the less I am off to spend two hrs working with one of the 4 year old twins( which really means both of them) on his speech and fine motor skills as he has some special needs. I would say 2 hrs wrangling 2 four year olds feels equivalent to a full days work back before I "retired". Keeps me out of trouble anyway. DD left for band camp this morning for a couple of nights so it will be pretty quiet with just DH and I. Perhaps a date night will be in order.

Set an extra plate for walkonby :P

leftover scraps: macaroni,sweet potato ,tomaato.avocado and cilantro

Mac & beef

I just finished hand rolling 400 lean ground beef meatballs. The last pans are in the oven now. I will freeze the rest for later meals. I'm sore and tired but I think it will be worth the effort.

pizza and noodle is my dinner menu today

Stir fry chicken strips with red pepper, onion and broccoli and I'm making coconut rice with peanut sauce.

yesterday I had homemade fish cakes (yummy) :)

Going to Swiss Chalet.

Not really sure, need to make a Costco run after work so it will be dinner on the go. Thinking Swiss Chalet sounds good but will have to see how much time we have.

I think I need to stop saying how we have to stop eating out as it seems like since I have been saying it we have been eating out more than ever.

It sure is a lot easier and less stressful trying to decide what to make.
