Attempt at trying new things

We have a very boring dinner menu, mostly consists of Chicken Chicken and MORE chicken, throw in the occasional beef and Steak. I am trying to spice up dinner with new recipes, I found a WONDERFUL website (momswhothink.com) with simple meals and weeks menus already typed out and thought out for me, so I don't have to think, just shop and cook! We are doing the shopping tonight and I will adjust some of the sides to make it more "our family friendly", there are particular seasonings that we don't care for. But these are my dinners for the first week:

Day One:
TUNA CASSEROLE

Day Two:
BAKED PESTO CHICKEN
ANGEL HAIR PASTA W/HERBS
FRENCH BREAD

Day Three:
CHILI COKE ROAST
MASHED POTATOES
GARLIC GREEN BEANS

Day Four:
BACON AND CHEESE QUICHE
HOME FRIED POTATOES

Day Five:
HONEY PECAN PORK CHOPS
BAKED SWEET POTATOES
BUTTERED BROCOLLI

Day Six:
EASY CHICKEN STROGANOFF
ITALIAN BREAD
TOSSED SALAD

Day Seven:
BUBBLE PIZZA


I will admit, that there are cheats I will take along the way for example when I make the quiche it allows me to use pre-made pie quest, and I am all for that! I hope that some of these go over well.. I am thinking of grabbing some hamburgers just in case Raf doesn't care for something and I can make a quick hamburger for him. Off to make my shopping list, the simple things in life get me so excited! =)
