I’m trying to get by this week without having to go to the grocery store. We’ll see if I can make it.
Here’s what I’m planning. We have 2 lbs of ground beef leftover from the weekend (ended up not making dinner on Sat night after our hike), and a bunch of other random stuff in the freezer so:
- last night we decided to go to the pool, so I made up a bunch of sandwiches and raided the pantry for chips/crackers and unloaded the fridge of a bunch of fruit
- tonight (tuesday) will be: pasta primavera (mushrooms and summer squash) with meat
- for wednesday: burritos (tortillas + ground beef + can of beans + cheese)
- thursday: scrambled eggs + blueberry muffins (we have a few blueberries that are getting past their prime)
- pizza night on Friday … I have all the ingredients for dough; hopefully we can scrounge up toppings!
We also will be harvesting some lettuce from our garden (pre-shredded thanks to the lovely hail we’ve been getting) and raspberries from our alley. They are going gang-busters again and the kids are so excited to pick them. Should make for some pretty good eats this week, I think.
You go you self sufficient lady you!
