I’m picking up produce from the local organic produce co-op this week so am going to try and tailor my meals to include a bit of those items…here goes:
Monday: Make-Your-Own Pizza and Barbecue Chicken Pizza, garden salad
Tuesday: Kid Friendly Burritos, carrot sticks & dill dip
Wednesday: Harvest Pork Loin (slowcooker meal from Super Suppers), potatoes, Beets in Orange Sauce
Thursday: Rustic Italian Totellini Soup, garden salad
Friday: leftovers
Saturday: out to eat
Sunday: leftovers
I’m also getting pears from the co-op and have some plain yogurt to use up so will probably make these Pear Walnut Muffins–my kids love ‘em!
One last tip…for the pizza, I use pre-made pizza crusts bought by the case at Sam’s Club (we don’t have a Costco near us). The 16″ crusts (extra large!) come a dozen to a case and average about $1.50 per crust. I go in together with a few friends and we split the case, cut up the crusts into quarters, pop into freezer bags and keep in the freezer until ready to bake. A super easy and inexpensive way to make “homemade” pizza at home–we can top each slice with whatever toppings we want and have our own individual pizzas at home…yum!
What’s on your menu this week? Happy Cooking!
