What's for dinner & other plans: Jan 27, 2025

I’m changing to planning for Monday through Sunday despite grocery shopping on Wednesday.

Not much on the calendar this week: just Pilates once and GrandFriends Day at the 8 year old’s school. My intention is to focus on finishing big tasks like transitioning to Kaiser for our health provider, finishing tasks for our office glow up and reorganization, etc. on top of the usual stuff. I do want to catch up with a neighbor who had a potentially really bad diagnosis but I haven’t talked to her since she spoke to the specialist.

What’s are your plans for the week?

This coming week’s dinner main dish plan reflects both what is on hand and my lack of decisiveness this morning!

  • Chicken chef salad or tostados
  • Huevos rancheros or an omelette 
  • Turkey chili x 2
  • Salmon
  • Pork chop or shrimp
  • Dinner out/takeout/leftovers

What we ate for dinner the last 6 days (not on order):

No particular favorites however I would not buy the cheese tortellini again as they were basically tasteless. We did have to throw out some leftover tilapia as neither of us grabbed it for lunch. 

  • Turkey burger, pinto beans, steamed zucchini 
  • Tilapia & salad
  • Cheese tortellini, broccoli, zucchini
  • Leftover beef stew, cornbread
  • Turkey burgers, black beans, butternut squash
  • Pick your own leftovers

  1. I am happy to have found your Blog! I am a FB refugee, returning to the more civilized world of blogging.

    We have a freezing black hole in our basement. Actually, it's a box, and it plugs into the wall. While I have been going grocery shopping, I've been making a point to rescue frozen food that had been sucked into the abyss that is commonly identified as a chest freezer. Bon Appetite!

  2. Love your menu. Everything looks so good. Still trying to make the best of everything I have in my freezers and pantry. Planting season will be here before we know it and I need to eat the harvested and frozen items before I put more in.

    God bless.

  3. I have put off doing the menu and grocery order. I've been craving salmon; I think I'll put some on our menu too.

    1. I’ve not used grocery delivery but it sounds like a very good idea.

  4. I think your food choices look really good. I think I will be eating down the contents of my freezer before I shop again. I don't know why i think I need this much food. Habit, I guess!

    1. I do see quite a few people have a freezer in addition to the one in their refrigerator. I imagine it makes a lot of sense if you grow and process food or live far from stores but we have never gone that route.
