The first week of meal planning was a success! No more wondering what's for dinner, and leftovers take care of lunch. The homemade pizza was surprisingly delicious, even with the part whole wheat crust and homemade sauce. We are going to make it a regular thing and have it every Friday.
Two things I discovered for the first time ever this week: cooking with yeast (apparently yeast is killed with water temps over 120. Now I know!), and cooking with ground turkey in place of ground beef. I used it in the enchiladas and it tasted great to us. I'll be using that more!
So here's our menu for this week...
Monday: Chicken Curry in a Hurry, over brown rice.
Tuesday: Crock Pot Chili.
Wednesday: Deluxe Macaroni and Cheese and veggie
Thursday: Red Lentil Soup and corn bread
Friday: Home made pizza
Saturday: Breakfast for dinner
Sunday: this day is relaxed. We eat whatever leftovers might still be in the fridge or a cheese. fruit and cracker plate.
