Meal Plan for August 9-22

 Did a big grocery shopping run so made up a 2 week meal plan based on what I bought plus what is growing in the garden. It’s hot again so almost all of this will be made in the instant pot or grilled.

Meal Plan for 8/9-8/15

  • Pasta with homemade meat sauce
  • Greek Harvest Grain casserole (Harvest grain blend from Trader Joe’s, onions, spinach, feta and ground chicken) with cucumber & tomato salad
  • Sauteed cabbage, potatoes and ham

Meal Plan for 8/16-8/22

  • Sweet & Spicy chicken stir fry over rice
  • Pork Chops with cauli-tator mash and veg
  • Sloppy joes plus with veg

Also (for me) cold lunches of salad, crackers and cheese, and/or bean dip & veggies. I like a nice light lunch when it’s hot outside, and it keeps my meat consumption down.

Meal plan for 8/1-8/7

 It’s a cool (well, for the end of July) and rainy day, so I’ve been planning and prepping and cooking today. These are my favorite days to be in the kitchen. The garden is producing well and we have a ton of cucumbers, plus some peppers and tomatoes.

Meal plan for 8/1-8/7

Tonight - pizza with the leftover taco meat from the burrito boats as topping, along with some jalapeno and cheddar sausage. Taco pizza! Yum.
Rest of the week:
-Beef Fajitas
-Eye of the Goat beans cooked with smoked turkey leg, cucumber salad
-Rice mixed with the rest of the jalapeno sausage and some of the beans, corn, tomatoes and peppers.
-Grilled chicken drumsticks and Greek barley salad
