weekly meal plan

 

The lettuces in my garden are going to seed, so we will be eating a lot of salads this week. I am also continuing with my plan to create menus using what I have readily available, so I am somewhat constrained in what I am able to plan. Once I can see the back of the freezer I plan on buying fish and trying some new recipes for it.

Monday – Tacos, Black Beans, and Spanish Rice

Tuesday – Use leftover meat and beans to make Taco Salad

Wednesday – Teriyaki Chicken, Beef Rice with Peas, and Garlic Green Beans

Thursday – Use leftover chicken in a version of Asian Chicken Salad

Friday – Pork Roast, Baked Beans, and Strawberry Spinach Salad

Saturday – Use leftover pork to make Pulled Pork, Baked Beans, and Italian Squash Salad

Sunday – Baked Salmon Steaks with Italian Marinade, Summer Squash with Chives, Baked Potatoes, and Swiss Chard Garden Salad

    Sounds good! I see you are getting a lot of veggies in too! The other day I realized we hadn't eaten anything but vegetables from the garden for an entire week! Cheap too! I don't think we've spent more than $50 for the entire month of July!(Wow what a lot of exclamation points.)

    Your menu looks so yummy! I'm glad you posted the recipe for Strawberry Spinach salad and the link for Zucchini Crab Cakes. I'd like to try both of these soon.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
