Menu Plan Monday~1st of 2012!

Happy New Year!  It is always kind of sad when the Holidays are over.  We still have all of our Christmas decorations up because I am just not ready to take them down.  We had a really great Christmas.  We hosted Christmas at our house so we had 20+ people here!  It was a bit hectic but fun.  I am excited to try out some of my new cookbooks I received as well as my new donut pan! I plan on testing that this afternoon.

Our New Year was very low key.  Hubby had back surgery on the 30th so we just stayed home and watched some movies.  He is actually home from work this week recuperating.

Did you make any New Year’s resolutions?  I made some goals for the New Year.  One is to run at least a half marathon this fall, maybe a full marathon.  Before I got pregnant with baby #3 I ran a half marathon.  Well, I actually ran the half when I was pregnant but didn’t know it yet.  I tell hubby this is why he beat me by 8 minutes!  I have had a hard time getting back into the swing of running but  think it is time now.  Little Man is now sleeping through the night so I am actually getting some good uninterrupted sleep now.  No more excuses for not getting up early!

On to the menu for this week:

Monday:  Pesto Marinated Tofu

Tuesday:  Sloppy Joes

Wednesday:  Lemon Corn Waffles with Blueberry Sauce (hubby’s request)

Thursday:  Lettuce Wraps (I actually made these last week but they were so good I am making them again so I can photograph them and share them with you all!)

Friday:  Pizza

Saturday:  Out of town for the day (My little sister is having a white coat ceremony at Michigan State University School of Veterinary Medicine as she transitions from course work  to clinical work)

Sunday:  Butternut Squash Lasagna

A pretty healthy menu to start 2012 off right!  Wednesday I will be celebrating the 1 year anniversary of Thrifty Veggie Mama with a giveaway!  Make sure you check back for details on that.  You won’t want to miss it!
