Looking for dinner inspiration? Here's what I've planned for dinner at our house this week!

My long weekend is winding down. And, I admit it, I'm sad that it is.

The past few months have been exhausting. Between work responsibilities and trying to juggle everything at home during a pandemic... I've been feeling burned out.

To try and gain back a little more control over my life, I spent time over the weekend doing some decluttering. I'm still of the mindset that less is more... but I needed to weed things out of our house to balance out the "more" that came in for our son's birthday.

I recently connected with our local Buy Nothing Project group. And it's felt wonderful gifting the things we no longer need to other families in our community. 

I hope I can find another slice of time today to weed out some more. But I'll have to work around meal prep and cooking to do it. Wish me luck... and, if you're curious, take some time to see what I've planned for dinner at our house this week!

A Week of Dinners: July 5 - July 11

• Sunday: Spinach Beef Cannelloni
  
  Yes, it's about a thousand degrees out today, and this is more of a cold-weather-comfort-food kind of meal. But I'm still planning meals based on the items we already have in the house, so...
  
  
• Monday: Breakfast for Dinner: French Toast made from Day-Old Peasant Bread
  
  In order to make this happen, I'm also baking bread today. Thank goodness we can spend some time outside so we're not suffering in a hot house. 🤷
  
  
• Tuesday: Grilled Kielbasa with Caramelized Onions and Mashed Potatoes
  
  Though, I might cook the potatoes in our cast iron skillet on the grill if there's room.
  
  
• Wednesday: Leftovers
  
  
• Thursday: Grilled Beef Cheeseburgers with Caramelized Onions and Vinegar Coleslaw
  
  
• Friday: Mozzarella and Prosciutto Pizza with Balsamic Onions
  
  
• Saturday: Maryland Crab Cakes with Cocktail Sauce and French Fries
