This should be an easy week to stay sort of on plan since I am off work. I'd like to prep a bit for next week, and then mostly need to just grocery shop for supplemental sides. I'm hoping the tuna croquettes are a hit as it seems like something that would be easy and a little different. What's on you menu this week? Is anyone inspired by another bloggers recent recipe posts and giving it a whirl?
Country fried steak with mashed potatoes tonight. No idea for the rest of the week. I have a freezer chock full of $1.99/lb. ground beef, so you can be certain that will be featured.
ReplyDeleteYes, all you bloggers certainly inspire my menu choices! I love to read what people are serving at their homes, and shamelessly copy menus/recipes!
If I came across GB at that price, it would be a staple here too. The mratnslls came in at $4 a pound but so easy for cooking.
DeleteI often make croquettes with a small can of tuna and really cannot tell much difference in the taste. Actually, I have only used one blogger's recipe, Mavis taco casserole, and make it in the crockpot, so it is more like taco soup. However, I do copy recipes to use someday. I have a hen and turkey thighs that need to go into a turkey bag in the oven. The breast will give me meat for the rest of this week, and exbf will get the turkey thighs and the rest of the hen.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear others have tried other proteins successfully in croquettes. Turkey and chicken ready for meals is convenient.
DeleteI really admire the way you have your meals as busy as you are.
