Two-Week Cooking & Menu Plan Update

September 22, 2010

I just didn’t have it in me to cook last weekend. That’s when we used up the last of our Two-Week Cooking Project meals, but I couldn’t bring myself to shop and cook. I’m sure you’ve all had those weeks too, so I know you understand! 

When I had to meal plan for this week, I didn’t have the luxury of being able to grab food from the freezer for each meal. Instead, I decided to use up some things that we had in our freezer. I bought several rotisserie chickens last week, so we had the meat from those. We also had some odds-n-ends in the pantry. I just had to pick up a few filler items from Kroger, and we were set for the week!

I’ll be doing my two-week menu plan today and tomorrow, so I’ll be back to share that with you. Feel free to share your planning ideas too. I love to try new recipes!

Here’s our plan… a few days late!

Monday
Grilled Pork Chops (the last freezer meal)
Frozen Peas
Cornbread

Tuesday
Southwest Chicken & Refried Beans Wraps

Wednesday
Homemade Pizza

Thursday
Chicken & Noodles
Salads

Friday
Soup & Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Saturday
We’re doing dinner with my parents while we watch the Ohio State football game!

Sunday
This will probably be cooking day for us, so we’ll use one of the meals for this evening.
