Weekly Meal Plan: 3/20 – 3/30

I may have slightly over-stocked on fresh produce, but am feeling very grateful to still have it so just focusing on using things that are getting older rather than trying to use it all up. Also looking at jars I’ve opened and other things that need to get used first in order to come up…

Weekly Meal Plan: 3/14 – 3/20

Missed a couple weeks with some travel and a cold, and now the farmers market is cancelled! It was interesting for me to combine shopping for my weekly produce at the grocery store with a bit of extra stocking up in case of quarantine – I felt like overall, I was buying just a little…

Pantry Preparations

Weekly Meal Plan: 2/15 – 2/21

Great to be back at the farmers market after a couple of weeks away; fridge was pretty empty except for a partial bag of kale and some Brussels sprouts I somehow never used. Not feeling particularly inspired with recipes or ingredients, since this is the time of year when even the squash are mostly gone…

Here’s my grocery list: Frozen broccoli – $3.50 Spinach x2 – $3 + $2.50 (Aldi is cheaper than Marc’s…) Kale $5 Pasta…
