Did you know my husband is a smoker? The good kind, that is—the kind that’s going to smoke a brisket on Wednesday! We’ll get several dinners and lunches out of that, and probably freeze some for later. Last week’s mac & cheese meal got postponed a day, so we still have one day’s worth of leftovers for that. Visit the original Menu Plan Monday for lots more menus.

This isn’t a very exciting week, I’m afraid—I’m making two things that last three days each, so not a lot of variety. But this is just one of those weeks I want to focus on other things besides meals so I wanted a lot of leftovers. The baked ziti is awesome, by the way, and easy.

Due to Anna’s birthday party on Saturday, having houseguests for the weekend, Anna’s actual birthday yesterday, and knowing we have plenty of leftovers to get us through several days, I’m just now thinking about food for the week. The chicken, soup, and ham are already in the fridge so I don’t really have to cook until Friday!

Tuesday: Vegetable beef soup, salad, cornbread

Wednesday: Grilled ham & cheese on sourdough, sweet potato wedges

Thursday: Vegetable beef soup, baked potatoes, French bread

Friday: Parmesan crusted chicken, green beans, salad

Saturday: Burgers (already made and frozen), potato wedges

Sunday: Chicken tacos, fruit, chips & homemade salsa

On Saturday David grilled a whole chicken, two flat-iron steaks, a batch of veggies, and some burgers, so we have most of that left to get us through the week. We froze the burgers and will pull them down as needed. If you’re grilling, always grill a lot—you can eat on it for several days and/or freeze some for later, and the majority of your cooking’s done!

Check out Menu Plan Monday for more great ideas.

Monday: Grilled chicken (pollo diablo), grilled mixed vegetables (see recipe below), baked sweet potatoes

Tuesday: Steak tacos, fresh fruit, chips & homemade salsa

Wednesday: same

Thursday: Roasted chicken hash (except with grilled chicken this time), green beans, French bread

Saturday: just snacks for supper because we’ll eat fish ‘n’ chips from Cregeen’s in the afternoon following the St. Patrick’s Day parade!

Sunday: Burgers, potato wedges
