So far it’s been so easy eating from the pantry that I’m tempted to do it again next month! It doesn’t hurt that last month I was able to freeze half of many of the meals I made, so I have a lot of ready made meals in the freezer. I have even been able to freeze a lot of what I’ve made this month, like last week’s slow cooker chicken tacos. I was able to freeze two more meals just from that!

This week’s meal plan is pretty simple. Andy’s cleansing today, so I’m not making anything special. And he’s not home for dinner much this week, so it’s going to be a pretty low key week for us!

Here’s the meal plan:

Monday: hot dogs

Tuesday: Grilled chicken, risotto, and snap peas

Wednesday: leftovers

Thursday: tacos (using the frozen chicken taco meat mix and I’m going to try making homemade flour tortillas – should be interesting!)

Friday: Spaghetti Lasagna with garlic bread (I used leftover spaghetti from last weekend and layered it with cheese in casserole dishes – we’re having company so it will be an easy meal all the kids will love!)

Saturday: hamburgers and mac and cheese

Sunday: Pesto Pizza (I had planned on making this last week and we ended up having to eat up some leftovers so I postponed it.)
