Meal Plan Monday - Week of March 28

After last week's 4-in-1 meal (you'll get to read about that tomorrow), I had planned just a 2-in-1 this week - until Big Sprout chose a recipe to cook that again used similar ingredients. It's looking like next week's Two for Tuesday will get you three meals using the same base ingredients, and I'm sure you can spot it in this week's meal plan.

I'm also simplifying the meal plan a bit by planning a week's worth of breakfasts and lunches without committing each meal to a specific day. This gives us a little extra flexibility based on what activities might pop up that day, what the kids feel like eating and the times that Jim fixes meals for them.
