The meal plan for the past 7 days
5. Chicken casserole, coleslaw, some green vegetable
7. Veggie dinner TBD
The veggie leftover meal happened at lunch. I did not have as much cooked as I normally would have and there was just enough for two small lunch plates.
The chicken casserole did not happen because we went out for dinner twice rather than the 1 time I planned.
Over all we did better than we usually do, didn't we?
My aim for the next 7 days is to use things we have either in the pantry or freezer. If I do go to the store it will be to cherry pick things to stock up.
Possibilities for Wednesday - Tuesday
1. Garlic butter chicken tenders, glazed carrots, rice pilaf, tossed salad
2. Grilled tuna steaks, chopped salad, potatoes (TBD)
3. Grilled steak, baked potato, broccoli, tossed salad
4. Peruvian chicken w/green sauce, potatoes, cucumber salad
5. Veggie meal TBD
6. Stuffed bell peppers, coleslaw, jasmine rice
7. Out to eat
Garlic butter chicken tenders rolls trippingly off the tongue and sounds so delicious.

THis is what I plan on making tonight, though there are several hours left for me to change my mind
DeleteGreat job staying on plan for the most part. Peruvian chicken w/green sauce sounds delicious. I haven't had that in a while and need to make it soon.
ReplyDeleteI will call actual;y making it a crap shoot. I have no resh jalapenos or cilantro. If I remember to buy it we can have it, if not we wll have something else.
DeleteLook at everything crossed off on that list. I'm impressed!
ReplyDeleteIt is not my norm , that's for sure.
DeleteI apparently am under the motto cook once eat four times. I think theres enough servings of this and that in the freezer I could get away not cooking for myself the rest if the month. The garlic chicken tenders and Peruvian chicken sound very nice.
ReplyDeleteI still have to buy some stuff for the Peruvian chicken, so it may or may not get made.
DeleteThis sounds so good. I’d love to have a seat at your table.

DeleteChicken, steak and tuna...I love your next week's menu plan.
ReplyDeleteIt's simple and to the point
DeleteYou did really great with staying on track with the meal plan! Lots of crossed off items! Well done!
ReplyDeleteIt was a better week than I usually have.
DeleteYum! Anything starting with garlic butter makes me sit up a little straighter!
ReplyDeleteMe too. I just hope it's good.
DeleteYum!! Where are you purchasing your lettuce??
ReplyDeleteI am buying it anywhere but only buying organic, then washing and drying it well before using it.
DeleteYou ate 6 of your planned 7? That's gold medal work, right there.
ReplyDeleteGarlic butter chicken tenders is my pick for this menu (as if I wouldn't demolish them all)
The garlic butter tenders were really tasty.
Deletesounds like a very delicious food week!
