This week’s meal plan took an unusually long time to plan. This is probably because I’m pretty wiped out from the quick trip down to Florida over the weekend. Travel is pretty tiring when you’re not in one place for very long. But, tired or not, meal planning has to happen.
The only goal I really tried to meet this week was that of “don’t buy more meat.” The only exceptions to this rule are the needs to eat chicken at least once a week and to eat fish at least once a week when Art is gone. This week the chicken will be coming out of the freezer, so it’s still meeting my goal! I will be buying salmon for meal 6, but I’m okay with that. I’m pretty sure that every recipe aside from the Acorn Squash is a new recipe, and that is also exciting!
My oven died last week so I wasn’t able to bake the Pecan Pie Bars I’d been dreaming about, but it got CPR while I was on my trip and seems to be working perfectly again. If all goes well, I’ll be making Pecan Pie Bars this week! The idea of needing to buy a new oven was very unappealing, so I’m glad that it was able to be repaired with no problems.
Happy eating!
