Menu Plan {Preparing for Lent}

Welcome back to our table! It's been a wild week/weekend at the house. Lots of stuff going on and such. Here's what we have cooking in the kitchen this week:

All recipes can be found at Budget Bytes! They are super yummy and super cheap to make.

If you noticed, our pizza nights (ok, except for this week...) have been moved to Saturday nights due to the Lenten season beginning on Ash Wednesday, March 5th. During this season of the Liturgical calendar we (Catholics, as far as I know...maybe other denominations) abstain from meat each Friday until Easter. So, Friday nights will be our fish/vegetarian nights. Last week, I made Baked Salmon with Lemon Pilaf - yummy! That one has been added to the "Lent List" for sure!

Also, I'm gathering books and things for the us as we come closer to the beginning of this season. Here are two that I plan on using:
