Yesterday I broiled a large batch of chicken thighs. I will be using that meat to speed up dinner prep a couple nights this week.

Monday – Minestrone Soup with Quinoa Pasta and Salad

Tuesday – Chicken Tacos, Black Beans, and Spanish Rice

Wednesday – Pasta and Vegetables with Alfredo Sauce and Salad

Thursday – Dinner with friends

Friday – Use leftover taco meat and beans to make a Taco Salad.

Saturday -Use leftover Alfredo Sauce to make Chicken Alfredo Pizza using GF Garlic ans Herb Pizza Crust. Serve with a garden salad.

Sunday – Honey Mustard Roasted Chicken and Squash

    LOL! What kind of crust do you like? I love deep dish pizza crust! My favorite homemade version is one I found at The Frugal Girl: http://www.thefrugalgirl.com/2009/02/wednesday-baking-how-to-make-deep-dish-pizza/

    It makes a nice, thick doughy crust. I imagine pizza is a little harder to find in Mongolia. 🙂

    I'm Rebecca's sister (turnedloose.blogspot.com) and I read your blog every so often. I'm wondering if you have a pizza crust to die for. I feel like I just wrote a letter to "Dear Abbie" or "Heloise"!

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.
