This week's menu

I recently went to a Menu Planning lesson (as part of a mother's learning group with some ladies in my ward) and found out that I'm actually doing almost exactly what I should with my meal planning as far as saving the most money and incorporating all the food groups. So anyway, here's our dinners for this week:
Monday: Turkey and rice soup
Tuesday: Gazpacho, crusty bread
Wednesday: Turkey manicotti, garlic breadsticks, spinach salad
Thursday: Top sirloin steak, twice-baked potatoes, steamed carrots
Friday: Fried chicken, bakes sweet potato fries, onion rings
Saturday: Penne Carbonara (We skip the spaghetti cus I don't like long noodles)
Sunday: Leftovers (if we don't eat them all for our lunches during the week)
