Each week I make a meal plan and most weeks I actually make 3 or 4 meals from the plan. This week was no exception. The only meal I am almost positive to honor every single week is the take out meal! We are masters of take out.
What was planned:
1. Pulled pork, caulitato salad, squash casserole, keto version of strawberry pretzel salad (which is a dessert!)
2. White bbq chicken, zucchini (lookout meal plan; the garden is on!) leftover caulitato salad
3. Veggie meal dependent on what is available at the produce stand Tuesday. keto cornbread
4. Grilled steak, zucchini fries, tossed salad
5. Thai chicken lettuce wraps
6. Greek chicken skillet, sautéed yellow squash, tossed salad
7. Take out/eat out/ blt (unsure at the moment)
What we actually ate:
Monday: TheHub took the day off for Memorial Day and we just did some general yard work and got my horse trough ready for planting. I suppose we could have smoked some pork, but I had packs in the freezer from a previous smoking event, so why bother?
Pulled pork with Ollies sauce, caulitato salad, sautéed yellow squash and onions, keto pretzel salad
Tuesday: TheHub wanted to go to Costco after work so we did. One the way home we called our favorite Mexican restaurant, placed the order, then grabbed our dinner there.
Take out from La Paz. Fiesta salad with chicken or the Mexican dinner plate
Wednesday: I intended to have a veggie meal but found the leftover crab cakes in the fridge. Normally I would have eaten them for lunch, but I had been doing work at Mom's each day and skipped lunch. There was no way I was going to throw them out. Warming them is why every single home needs an air fryer. They tasted just like they did the day I made them. This was a strange meal that did not go together at all, but it fed us.
Leftover crab cakes, squash casserole, collards
Thursday: I was not in the mood to spend much time cooking and this quick meal was on my menu plan anyway.
Thai chicken lettuce wraps, cucumbers, tomato slices
Friday DIL2 and Son2 were here for some ball game watching and a quick dinner.
Pizza or crustless pizza, keto zucchini brownies w/ keto 'ice cream"
Saturday: Neither of us wanted a big dinner
Turkey and ham sandwiches or deconstructed breadless sandwich
Sunday: Son2 and Dil2 came over for more ball game watching and lunch. As luck would have it the ball game had a long rain delay and was not over until about 8:30. After they left we made a mad dash to Arby's for a 2/$6 meal.
Arby's Greek Gyros (If you have not had this, I recommend giving it a shot. We thought they were really good fast food)
What we might have this week:
1. Greek skillet chicken, sautéed squash, tomato slices
2. Grilled steak, zucchini fries, tossed salad, dinner rolls or keto rolls
3. Meat loaf, mixed squash medley,cole slaw
4. Veggie dinner TBD based on the garden and produce stand
5. Grilled snapper/caulimash or real mashed potatoes, green beans, tossed salad
6. Chicken fajita salad
7. Takeout or eat out
I have got to start using more from my freezer. It is about to be harvest time, which means I will be putting a boatload of summer produce in it for the winter. I need space, so every meal on the plan this week utilizes freezer items.
Have a great week staying on plan, going off plan, or with no plan at all!
