Menu Plan Week 46 – Using What We Have

Entering Week 22 of Hubby’s Unemployment Adventures too …

I shopped quite a bit this past week … too much.  Hubby is out until Wednesday so I will really be utilizing what we have on hand for the following week … Once he is home, I will have to buy some milk, but I think we are good on everything else …

I was home Monday (thank you to all the Veterans for giving and preserving our freedom!) and decided to get the freezers organized … watch for a post on ‘that’ … also used up a spa gift certificate … seemed to be the perfect day to do so …

Here’s what we got going on this week …

Sunday – inside out burgers made by the Princess boyfriend. Beef came from freezer and amazingly enough, the buns in the pantry were still edible

Monday – leftover chili from last week with a small salad on the side

Tuesday – stir fry veggies with some chicken (chicken in freezer, veggies in fridge) … wont’ be as elaborate as that particular post!

Wednesday – 3 pack crockpot roast … new recipe, pretty simple, hope it turns out well … if so, will post the recipe …. will have sautéed shrooms (fridge) and spinach on the side (beef from freezer, same with spinach and packets from pantry)

Thursday – Cobb Salad (lunchmeat and balance of ingredients are in the fridge already)

Friday – Hubby’s good friend has put together a “networking” social hour for tonight at a little pub we all like to hang out at … he needs to get his face in front of some people to make a buzz on his name again … time passes, people quiet down, so here’s hoping that people will be talking about him again come Monday at the offices

Saturday – Hubbys choice, will try and lean him towards chicken thighs and veggies on the grill!

What are you cooking this week?
