Meal Plans for the week?

I am looking for ideas! Trying to get back into meal planning so we don't resort to take out and multiple grocery trips a week!

Grilled peppered pork tenderloin

Spaghetti with meat sauce

Baked parmesan chicken tenders

There are pork chops, but I don't know what I am doing with them

Burgers with blue cheese

I have yellow squash, green beans, baked sweet potatoes, etc for sides

 

This was my first week attempting to not spend like a crazy woman at the grocery store- I cannot believe how much cheaper Aldi is than where I normally shop.  More money for rum.

Thursday: brined pork chops, roasted fingerling potatoes, salad

Friday: tortelini with pesto and chicken sausage
