I don’t know what happened last week, but I ended up only cooking three nights and the remainder were filled with leftovers and delicious tex-mex. Sometimes dinners do not always go as planned! What this means for this week is that meals 1 and 3 are holdovers from last week.
This week also begins the month of two leftover nights a week. Why? Because I’ve joined a second choir and they overlap for a month. We’ve found that it’s just easier to do leftovers when I’m rushing around to get out the door for choir practice, so the guys have kindly agreed to tolerate two nights of leftovers a week during April. I hope to generate those leftovers by making a few large casserole-type dishes every week (meals 3 and 7) plus a specific lunch recipe (Chickpea Sausage Salad).
This is also a pretty cow-heavy week, but we’ve only got 4-5 more months to deplete our freezer stores! (We actually might have longer than that since we might be getting our second half cow from the farm we got our half pig from, and I believe they’re got a different slaughtering schedule.)
Here’s hoping that I’m able to stick to the meal plan this week!
