Slow Cooker Kraut & Sausage

Chicken and Rice Casserole

This is an old recipe that I haven’t made in a while. I don’t remember where I got it from originally but it is fairly easy to put together. Pair it with a salad and some rolls to make a great meal.

This recipe also works well with pork chops!

January 29-February 4, 2017 Meal Plan

This is our basic meal plan for the week. Sometimes we will switch the days around if I forgot to set something out or put something in the crock pot. Please feel free to use this or change it around to suit your family’s needs.

I do have ‘Snacks/Desserts’ listed as well. I always try to keep a bowl of fresh fruit out on the counter or table for the kids to snack on. Sometimes I will make a special snack or treat for us to enjoy.
