I feel like I’ve been cooking a whole lot more than usual lately and at the same time not so much. I think it’s just been all the “extras” like breakfast items that are filling my kitchen (and freezer!) This week we’ve got a busy weekend so the meal plan will be on the fly. But here’s what’s cooking the rest of the week:
Monday: Beef Tenderloin, Pear and Cranberry salad (recipe to come later this week!)
Tuesday: Spaghetti Meat Sauce over whole wheat pasta; garden salad
Wednesday: Chicken Caesar Salad with carrots, celery, cucumbers and locally bought lettuce (for some reason I can’t find the recipe online anymore so guess I’ll need to do a post for it myself at some point–it is a freezer meal!)
Thursday: leftovers
Friday: leftovers
Saturday: out to eat
Sunday: TBA

Oh thank you for writing this: “(for some reason I can’t find the recipe online anymore so guess I’ll need to do a post for it myself at some point–it is a freezer meal!)”
I made a recipe this month that a few weeks ago was all over pinterest but now I can’t find it anywhere (on pinterest or google or anywhere!) I don’t feel so bad now!
Jennifer, glad I’m not the only one either! My family goes nuts when they get on the computer and I have tons of window tabs open so I can go back and pin them all on Pinterest. This recipe for the Caesar marinade is actually from a cookbook I have but I found a version online at one time but I think it was removed when they made their online content member only access.
I love that that you plan out your meals. That is so fantastic. I can do a few days in advance but anymore than 3, and I’m toast:) And yes! post that recipe,it sounds like a winner. I’d love to try it:)
Nicki, meal planning definitely takes practice but it is so worth it in the end–both for saving time and $$! Just try to do it in baby steps and before you know it, it will become a habit!
