Summer Meal Plan Number 1
This is totally for my own record keeping….it is the first meal plan I’ve worked out for summer. Feel Free to ignore.
The order is set to help with meal prep. So I cook an extra couple of ears of corn on Sunday and cut off the kernels. That gets used later with the succotash. I also try to put the quick salads on days I know I have a lot going on.
Sunday: Grilled Pork, Sweet Potato Fries and Corn on the cob
Monday: Black Eyed Pea Salad
Tuesday: Pasta with meat sauce
Wednesday: Pinto Beans and Rice
Thursday: Stuffed Green Peppers and Succotash
Friday: Broccoli and Pasta Salad
