It’s another delicious week thanks to a day of preparations. I’ve discovered audiobooks are so great for these days because I feel like I am accomplishing two things I want to do at once! Thanks to our library partnering with hoopla, I have been able to really take advantage of this freely through my library card.
I hope these meal ideas have been inspiring to you and your family!
Approximate Time for Preparation- 3 hours plus clean-up!
Roasted Turkey Breast (for sandwiches)- I roasted this while I chopped the other food!
Homemade Pizza Sauce (I stole one from our freezer this week!)
Pizza Dough (I bagged the dry ingredients for my homemade pizza)
Greek Lemon Chicken Soup (soup base prepared minus the noodles)
Grapes (removed from the vine, but I didn’t rinse so they don’t get moldy!)
Brown Rice (four cups)- (NEW TUTORIAL!!)
Slow Cooker Pot Roast Italiano (prepped & bagged)
Chopped Romaine Hearts (for salads & turkey sandwich topping)
Spaghetti Sauce
Pumpkin Pancakes (mixed dry ingredients & jotted down wet ingredients needed on packaging)
Chicken Lo Mein (ingredients chopped and bagged separately & sauce prepared in a separate container)
Green Beans (trimmed) & Mushrooms in separate bags- planning to roast them like this
Chopped Carrots & Celery (I store these in water)
Green Smoothie Packets (I use this recipe and froze the strawberries, bananas, and fresh spinach in packets for the morning.)
