meal planning??
I was a total failure last week - it was too hot to cook and I had no interest.
I want to try better this week.
So far, I have:
chicken satay w/ ?
grilled fish & veggies and brown rice
tacos w/ ground turkey
balsamic chicken w/ cous cous and spinach
We also got crabs yesterday and have a bunch leftover - so DH might make a soup w/ them.
Re: meal planning??
We kind of failed last week, too.
Corn on the cob.
Something with squash - I'm thinking sauteed squash medallions with balsamic vinaigrette with quinoa.
3 bean salad - kidney beans, pinto beans and garbanzo beans with an oil and vinegar dressing on rice.
Pasta with broccoli - the pasta may very well end up as pasta with a curry sauce, so something not Italian.
Watermelon - either served in chunks with the corn or as a chilled soup.
My meal planning has been pretty lack-luster lately.
You're a smart girl.
We had baked ziti one night and beer can chicken this weekend. We made chicken corn soup with the left overs.
Tonight we're grilling fish with corn on the cob and zucchini. We also have lemon garlic chicken and burger for later in the week.
Sunday- pineapple chicken and kidney beans.
Monday- Clean out the fridge night. (We have hot dogs, chicken, sausage) and corn.
Tuesday-Leftover night.
Wednesday- Eggplant Parm
Thursday- Chicken enchilda's and rice or beans.
Friday- Pizza
Saturday- BBQ/Out.
We're trying to get better with the meal planning....so far....
Monday: going to the Coldplay concert in DC so no cooking for me
Tuesday: Chilli rubbed steak with avocado and cucumber salad/slaw/salsa
