Tomorrow night we are having turkey tacos and guacamole. We've also gone crazy and switched the black beans to refried beans, ha ha.

I’m beyond sick of feeding people!

Tuesday - air fried Pork chops with roasted veggies

Wednesday - I’m going to try and do knock off chipotle steak burritos because my son loves them.

Thursday - baked ziti

Friday - frozen pizza like every Friday


ETA - I can’t plan beyond that. Maybe I’ll request my Mothers Day gift to be not having to plan a weekend meal.

I have not wanted to even think about food for the past couple of weeks so dinners got... creative lol. Did have a couple of successes, though - one of which will make it into our regular rotation (https://www.punchfork.com/recipe/Chicken-Primavera-Spaghetti-Squash-Boats-Delish).


This week is more phoning it in with the planning and getting creative with what I have on hand.

S: healthier marry me chicken with coconut cauliflower rice and sautéed green beans
M: Salmon, roasted mushrooms and broccoli, and leftover cauliflower rice
T: tofu or chicken... and I really need to think of something besides stir fry... maybe broccoli radicchio salad (if the radicchio is still good 🤞)
W: why isn't this week over yet?
T: pan fried fish (tilapia or mahi)... fish tacos sound good?
F: depends on my fatigue level. Could be meatballs. Could also be takeout.
S: H said something about helping more with cooking on weekends. So I'm going to call his bluff and then we'll probably order takeout lol😂
