A Week of Dinners.


We're taking some time in between packing & purging to do some planning for our meals over the next few weeks. Still waiting for our Possession Letter that will state our actual move in date, so we're keeping busy & trying to be proactive so we'll be ready once our time frame has been identified. For the week of April 18th to April 24th, here's what we have chosen to create to nourish our busy souls: 

Saturday, April 18th, 2015: 
Parmesan Chicken with Steamed Veggies & Wild Rice.
Sunday, April 19th, 2015: 
Annie's Organic White Cheddar Pasta with Kale Salad.
Monday, April 20th, 2015: 
Boneless Pork Chops with Mashed Purple Cauliflower.
Tuesday, April 21st, 2015: 
Stir Fry with leftover pork & Veggies.
Wednesday, April 22nd, 2015: 
Swedish Meatballs with Brown Rice & Pickled Beets.
Thursday, April 23rd, 2015: 
Turkey & Cranberry Buns with Ginger Carrot Soup.
Friday, April 24th, 2015: 
Baked Salmon with Dill Sauce & Coleslaw.

We bought groceries today & spent a total of $64.06. That gave us all the ingredients we need up to Thursday. Then we'll need to buy the turkey, the buns, the beets & the salmon for Friday night. We'll also need milk by then & a few small things to add to lunches. Not sure the cost yet but we try to keep our groceries to around $150 for the week. Right now, I'm trying to use up what's in our freezer & what we have in the cupboards so we aren't having to pack up food to move or throw away. A very good start.

How is your meal planning coming for this week?

I have to do a meal plan for the week. Not sure I want to though, as it will depend on how sick I am this week, as to what I have the energy to make.

I wish I could send you warm meals while you're sick! Hot soup and fresh buns to make you better.
