Note - yes, I left Sunday off intentionally because Sundays tended to either be easy meals or leftovers - I don't typically do a big meal. And we usually do leftovers at least once a week, if not twice so I left room in there to push meals around and use up leftovers.
Several meals are slightly vague - like Pasta Florentine - depending on the week, my mood and the sales this might be Ham Florentine, Chicken Florentine or Salmon Florentine and the veggies may be what was on sale or just what I have stockpiled in the freezer.
The same is with the soup - this might be a simple classic standby I make or maybe I will try and new recipe I found.
Tuesdays tend to be my out and about days - so those days I either plan a meal I can make ahead on Monday and pop in the oven when we get home or one I can put in the crockpot in the morning.
Almost all my meals are the type that can be almost completely prepped ahead of time and just combined/cooked/completed just before dinner or is crockpot-able. I find, especially when pregnant, but even some when not :-) that my energy and motivation is much better in the morning and if I can complete the majority of my mess and work before naptime it makes for a much better evening!
