Weekly Meal Plan 81
Lots of activities going on as we wrap up the school year here in Texas and press ahead with baseball season. (The last day of school for the big boys is Friday.)
We’ve got some yummy recipes this week that will be easy for me to prepare with our busy schedule.
Crockpot Beans and Rice– I will make the rice in the rice cooker. Super easy! Do you have a rice cooker? We will have a dinner salad as well.
Baked Chicken Tostadas– using the leftover crockpot beans in place of refried beans. Served with Puerto Rican rice.
A1 and Dijon Crockpot Steak– this sounds amazing! Served with mac and cheese and a green veggie or dinner salad. If there are any beans still leftover, we can eat those up as well.
Taco Muffins– served with leftover Puerto Rican rice and a steamed veggie.
Crockpot Lemon Chicken– I still have not shared this recipe with you guys. It is amazing! I will try hard to post it on my site soon (or guest post it on another site and share the link with you guys). Served with pasta and french bread.
French Bread Pizza– it does not get any easier than this!
By the way, did you know that using your crockpot saves you money? Stephanie, from the site A Year of Slow Cooking found that it only costs $0.02 per hour to cook in your crockpot. That is something to think about.

Looks like a great menu! We love French Bread Pizzas too — so easy and absolutely delicious. Crockpot lemon chicken sounds like a winner as well. Have a blessed week!
Thanks for stopping by!
The crockpot lemon chicken is so great and tender. I really need to share the recipe with my readers soon.
Crystal, thank you so much for all of the crockpot recipes! With the summer coming up and 4 boys of my own, I am really putting forth the effort to make slow cooker meals so I have more quality time with them and not in the kitchen all afternoon! Have a great week!

I love using my crockpot! Turn it on, then forget about it. That’s the way to cook! Your menu looks fantastic.
Truth be known, the crockpot is my saving grace. 🙂
I can’t remember the last time I had french bread pizza…and it is so delicious!
Becca- isn’t french bread pizza just awsome easy?!
