Something is very wrong with this photo. Oh well, the holidays are always a little crazy.

WEEK 1

MONDAY - Chipotle.

TUESDAY - Greek egg soup (via Epicurious), pierogies, and kale chips. I make this soup for lunch a lot, so I was hoping the whole family would like it, but no such luck. Oh well, it's still a personal fave.

WEDNESDAY - Dinner at a friend's house. Dan feeds himself and the kids.

THURSDAY - Dan makes steak and potatoes.

FRIDAY - Leftovers.

SATURDAY - Dan makes steamed dumplings and potatoes.

SUNDAY - Dan makes fish.

WEEK 2

MONDAY - Italian sausage stew with potatoes and cabbage (via Three Many Cooks). This is one of our favorite fall/winter meals. So good.

TUESDAY - Polenta pizzas and cauliflower/corn tacos (both recipes from The Forest Feast). I'm in love with these tacos.

WEDNESDAY - Chili with fritos (via Cravings). The kids were so excited to have fritos I was nervous they'd forget to eat any of the chili.

THURSDAY - Thanksgiving at our house, Dan makes an amazing feast.

FRIDAY - Dinner out with friends at Tupelo Honey.

SATURDAY - Leftovers

SUNDAY - Dan makes steak and black bean fajitas (and they were crazy good).

WEEK 3

MONDAY - Eggplant pasta sauce and spaghetti (via Food52 Genius Recipes: 100 Recipes That Will Change the Way You Cook) & "Use A Spoon" chopped salad (via Food52 Genius Recipes: 100 Recipes That Will Change the Way You Cook). The kids didn't love the eggplant, but they all (somewhat shockingly) loved the salad. I'll call that a win.

TUESDAY - Vegetarian tortilla soup (via Cravings). The kids (surprisingly) loved this. T even asked for multiple servings.

WEDNESDAY - Pancakes for dinner.

THURSDAY - Dan makes brisket in the slow cooker.

FRIDAY - Make your own pizza night.

SATURDAY - Dinner club with our neighbors.

SUNDAY - Homemade pizza at our neighbor's house (yum!!).
