Weekly Meal Planning Inspiration

Picture

For the week of May 26, 2014:

It’s a short week! Yay! I hope you had a long weekend and a short week ahead of you, too! Yesterday, we barbecued and my husband’s recipes are secret so I can’t share them. We also had corn on the cob and our favorite: kale salad!

This week, I feel like we are fully embarking on the summer activities. We have the tiny backyard pool for the kids, we are taking a big group to the lake, my oldest is graduating from her home school preschool and it’s going to be pretty warm!

Some good things on sale at Martin’s this week including whole chicken, thighs and drumsticks (Nature’s Promise brand). We also picked up some yellow fin tuna at a good price. Unfortunately, berries still aren’t that cheap, but we found some at our local farmer’s market that were “no spray” – that was a big win for us. Four quarts gone in three days. Lucky kids!

Tuesday: Seared yellow fin tuna, rice, asparagus

Wednesday: Roast chicken with celery, carrots, potatoes and onions (going to make some broth with the leftovers later this week) and steamed broccoli

Thursday: Ground beef mac n goat cheese – it’s just like my original recipe except I brown a pound of ground beef with the onions and continue on as normal.
