I had absolutely no plan for our meals for the week, so there was no way I could be either on or off plan.
Plan or no plan dinner happens every day.
Last week's unplanned dinners:
Monday: Out to eat, either lasagne or antipasto platter and salad
Tuesday: Leftovers from Monday night
Wednesday: One dish taco skillet meal, coleslaw
Thursday: Kung pow chicken over rice or cauliflower rice
Friday: Bbq, pork potato salad, baked beans, coleslaw, buns , chocolate chip, and peanut butter cookies
Saturday: Spaghetti bolognese, tossed salad, croissants, cheesecake
Sunday: Leftovers from the bbq meal
What may or may not happen this week:
We have 2 events planned this week that will include meals out
Leftover from the BBQ meal
Leftovers from the spaghetti meal
Big salad meal TBD
Greek chicken, Greek potatoes, green beans
Soup and sandwich TBD
Have a great week staying on plan, going off plan, or with no plan at all.
No plan about covers me. Though himself has expressed a wish for a beef casserole that will probably happen today or tomorrow. Fortunately he likes leftovers.
ReplyDeleteYou are kind to make meals you will not eat to satisfy himself. I am not sure I would be so accommodating
DeleteI don't have any plans set in stone for the week. I do better at posting what we ate last week because I do know that. LOL
ReplyDeleteI actually only make a plan as a visual for me to see what we have that we need to use, so most weeks it is just a suggestion to keep me from letting foods ruin.
DeleteWe had two different family dinners over the weekend, and now we're enjoying the leftovers. That was our plan. :)
ReplyDeleteWe had company meals also with planned leftover meals.
DeleteI know what we have and plan to eat it at some point during the week. That is my plan every week. Sometimes, that does not even happen.
ReplyDeleteanonymous above is Practical Parsimony
DeleteI understand that completely!
DeleteI went to Laurel, Mississippi this weekend and enjoyed looking at some of the restored houses/ businesses from the HGTV HOMETOWN series. I went to the Lauren Rogers Art Museum where they had a Van Gogh exhibit as well as other artists. It is a beautiful little town. So I didn’t do much dinner planning for the week. I have spinach, potatoes, sweet potatoes and onions, and that has all been tossed into a cast iron skillet with a little olive oil for my side items this week. A can of salmon has worked as my main protein, since I hate salmon unless it is from a can and only a certain brand…. go figure. I also don’t like salmon patties, just want to eat it raw with hot sauce straight from the can… weird I know. So, not a lot of planning going on here. Cindy in the South
ReplyDeleteI am all in favor of eating whatever works for any individual.
DeleteI have only been to Laurel a couple of times and it is lovely.
You might not have planned last week's meals, but, you enjoyed some good meals! And now, you have leftovers to carry you through this week! That's good planning, I'd say. :)
ReplyDeleteI do like having leftovers but TheHub is not a big fan. Too bad for him.
DeleteSpaghetti is great and leftovers are greater!
ReplyDeleteAnd leftover spaghetti is the best of leftover world.
DeleteYour meals all sound delicious. Yay on two nights going out. It gives you a much needed break. I also loved planned left overs. Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteBoth nights this week are events, but not really a break because they involve getting all gussied up.
DeleteYour meals sounded good! You had me at spaghetti (smile). Cheers to a new week.

DeleteSpaghetti is good, leftover spaghetti is even better.
You have planned well throughout the week.
ReplyDeletePlanned, which may or may not actually happen.
DeleteNext week is going to be an overload of fasting. We have too much going on this week.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had Kung pow in forever. Are you going to make it yourself?
ReplyDeleteMade it, ate it and had a lot leftover
DeleteJust found you over at Respice, Prospice and had to say hi (also followed your blog). I am from Jasper but now live in Suffolk, Va. And, I think we have some interest alike, writing, art, Music but I like classical most of all, reading etc. etc. Hope you'll visit my blog Accidently Aging and say hi.
ReplyDeletethat's me - never a plan for dinner. well a sort-of kind-of plan sometimes :=)
