Menu Monday & a new favorite recipe

I am actually getting my menu post done on time! and also. 2 posts in 2 days? I'm feeling a little crazy!
 
I'm going to start by sharing a new family favorite. I made these Taco Stuffed Shells a few weeks ago and they were a hit with 5 out of 5 family members. That rarely happens! I was so happy that Ben actually got seconds when he typically doesn't eat pasta!

These are easy to make ahead & do not take much time. Go try them & let me know if your family approves too!
 
Monday: French Bread Pizzas (Mondays are game nights & we have to eat something fast!)
 
Tuesday: Sweet & Sour chicken (I just buy a bottle of sauce at the store) and fried rice (recipe below)
 
1 bag of boil in a bag rice
sesame oil
soy sauce
frozen mixed veggies
1 egg
scallions
 
Prepare rice following directions on box & set aside. Add about 1 tbs of sesame oil to a hot skillet. Add 1 cup of frozen mixed veggies. Sauté the veggies for a few minutes until they begin to soften. Add rice. Stir everything to combine. Add a few shakes of soy sauce -- this totally depends on how you like it. Add as much as you like! Make a well in the center of the skillet and add the egg. Stir it all together quickly until egg is cooked. That's it!
 
Wednesday: Chicken Tostadas (I'm happy to share my recipe if anyone wants it!)
 
Thursday: this mama is going out!

Saturday: Grilled Chicken + some sort of veggie
