My youngest son has been sick the last few days. He's a brave little guy, though, and despite his fever, loss of appetite, and overall aching, he still finds little ways to be sweet and bring a smile to my face. I could stand to learn a few lessons from him.
Prayers are appreciated, not only for his recovery, but also that his sickness won't spread throughout the home. It breaks my heart when the little blessings aren't well. They are so precious!
Here's our healthy and budget-friendly meal plan for this week:
Breakfasts
Whole wheat bagels with scrumptious blueberry jam
Salty eggs over whole wheat bread
Banana muffins
Fruit and yogurt
Eggs with horseradish and dill
Lunches
Bacon, lettuce, and cheddar on whole wheat bagels
Egg salad on whole wheat bread
Diced chicken breast over salad
Leftovers x 2
Dinners
Chili pie in a cast iron skillet
Spaghetti with bacon, onions, and tomatoes
Southwestern black bean tacos with cilantro and lime
Grilled chicken with grilled carrots and potatoes
Chicken pot pie with a savory herb and cheddar crust
What's on your menu this week? I'd love to know!
Warmly,

P.S. I'm getting super excited about Spring coming and would love to hear about your favorite grilling recipes in the comment section! Maybe I'll include it in a future meal plan

Jaime, I couldn’t remember if we already asked you this or not… do you enjoy a good love story? We’re posting a true story on our blog and we think people may really enjoy it. It’s the story of 2 Christian kids that fell in love. We’ve posted 5 parts so far and below is the link to part 1. Check it out and let us know what you think:

Looks like everyone is eating good at your house! Your chicken pot pie reminded me that my girls have been asking for this. I’m going to check out your cheddar pie crust!
Thanks for linking to the Barn Hop!
First, I’d like to tell you how much I love your background music. It is beautiful!
Great looking menu! I’m adding the spaghetti on my list to try.
I thought Chilli Pie was going to be complicated but I clicked on the link and hey, it looks easy. Might have to try that one.
Everything looks so good. When can I visit?
We are having shepherd’s pie, creamy chicken and rice soup, pinto bean burritos, and chicken quesadillas.
Oh, Sweet Lisa, you just pop on over!
Anytime!
