Meal Planning - 1/27/2013

For those unaware, I spent the last two weeks on a cruise ship in the Caribbean for my honeymoon. It was seriously one of the best experiences of my life, and I'll be writing about it soon. But first I need to say - daaaamn the food. DAMN - food!!! Gonna try to learn some new, impressive dishes. I'll seriously miss that food.

Sunday:
Jambalaya (super easy Zatarain's mix.) Forgot my mom planned a welcome-home dinner.

Monday:
Sauteed chicken and rice leftovers from Sunday

Tuesday:
Make your own tacos (Recipe on El Paso boxes. Srsly easy, dudes.)

Wednesday:
Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes

Thursday:
Pulled pork sandwiches and roasted butternut squash

Friday:
Freezer pizza (because I probably won't even be home - planning to see Warm Bodies with my bestie.)

And now off to the store!

Meal Planning - 1/7/2013

Okay, so... I'll admit that my usual trip to the supermarket happens when we start to get desperate. Out of milk, out of cereal, or out of cat litter. We don't typically plan out the week ahead, either. Sure we'll grab some frozen pizzas and eat them eventually, but that's about a close as it gets.

So my goal is to try this whole "weekly meal planning" thing that I see on so many of the home blogs I read. I guess this means I'll be cooking a little more... But oh well! I think I can do it!

Monday:

• Cheeseburgers and Mashed Potatoes

Tuesday:

• Spaghetti with crockpot meatsauce (planned leftovers for wednesday lunch!) I got the recipe here.

Wednesday:

• Shake n Bake chicken, green beans

Thursday:

• Sexy Porkchops, rice

Friday:

• Freezer pizza

Fortunately, I already have some stuff that I need to make these... But I will need to pick up a few extra things tonight.

Shopping list:

• 3 pounds ground beef
• 1 shallot
• Hamburger buns
• 2 large onions
• 28 oz diced tomatoes
• 30 oz tomato sauce
• 6 oz tomato paste
• Spaghetti noodles
• 1 pound chicken breast
• Green beans
• 2 bone-in porkchops
• 1 garlic bulb
• Rice
• Freezer pizza

Once I get around to cooking these various meals, I'll post pictures and full recipes. I'm excited to get started!
