Meal Planning for the Week

December 3rd, 2012 at 12:22 am

As the days get colder I find I am in the mood for heartier fare. More of the stick to your ribs sort of meals than the lighter meals of summer or early fall. I am finding that the urge for root vegetables is strong, which is convenient, since they are now what is in season and buying in season produce is always much more frugal than not. With that in mind, and working with my freezer inventory, these are the meals I have planned for the week.

Monday--
Chicken stew (chicken, carrots, potatoes, turnips, peas, gravy)
Fresh bread
Green beans
Pears

Tuesday--
Chicken pot pies (leftover chicken stew as the filling and homemade crusts)
Broccoli
Oranges

Wednesday--
Crockpot pulled pork burritos
TJ's canned corn
Frozen blueberries
Green beans

Thursday--
Crock pot ground beef and (home canned) tomatoes
Baked potatoes
Broccoli
Frozen plums

Friday--
Baked potato soup
Fresh baked bread
Frozen raspberries and blackberries
Cole slaw

Saturday--
Ethiopian Sloppy Joes (has potatoes in it) served over homemade bread
Cole slaw
Oranges

Sunday--
Crockpot beef chuck roast
Mashed potatoes and gravy
Green beans
Drop biscuits with choice of homemade jams
