{Meal Plan} Pinning and Planning Our Dinner Menu – Week of October 9

Guess what?

Hubby is traveling this week. So you know what that means – lots of tomato and bean dishes. While the cat is away, the mice will play and eat beans.

This week, the kids and I have planned a menu full of beans and tomatoes. We will be loving lycopene and plant-based protein once again. Oh yeaaaaahhhhh.

Next weekend, we’re headed off to Orlando for Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival and Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. This will be out first WDW Food & Wine experience and I’m so excited!

Of course, I will over-indulge and enjoy every morsel at the Food & Wine Festival, but I will be eating light meals before we take a bite into the action.

Here’s our dinner menu for the week:
