Menu Planning Monday
Yes, it’s Tuesday, and by the time I get around to actually posting this it will most likely be Wednesday, but I need to get on the ball and start doing this before I lose my mind.
You may have noticed that posting around here has been even lighter than usual. It’s not because I’m not cooking, it’s because I am cooking badly. I stand around and stare and pull out cookbooks and rummage through the pantry and dither and dather and come up with nothing except for meals that I am not proud of.
I’ve done several things I’m not proud of recently, including a meal of leftover pasta (two kinds!) heated on the stove top with a can of tomatoes, a bunch of leftover chopped green beans and a handful of mozzarella cheese. It was the most disgusting thing I think I’ve ever cooked, not because of the ingredients, but because of how last minute it was. I couldn’t bring myself to actually eat any of it.
So I’m done. From here on out I’m planning meals to avoid being completely disgusted with myself.
Monday: Homemade cheese pizza
Tuesday: Bean, cheese, and sweet potato burritos
Wednesday: Leek and potato soup, sourdough baguettes
Thursday: Chicken and white bean stew, baguettes
Friday: Garlic chicken( the other half of Thursday’s whole chicken), asparagus, mashed potatoes
Saturday: Pepperoni bread (making one for Sunday), leftovers
Sunday: birthday party food (I’m making macaroni and cheese, lots of cold appetizers and everyone else is bringing the rest)
It’s a start. Now I just need to stick to the plan.
