Meal Plan Monday Post

Popping in with a biweekly Meal Plan Monday! I'm hoping to get some posts up for July so keep your fingers crossed. We've been using a lot of farm produce and there were some throw together meals to keep on top of said overflowing produce after some dinner plans were changed. I started an evening photography class last week so I'll make dinner dinner early, eat it myself, and then leave the leftovers in the fridge for Patrick. We were both on adventures this past weekend, Patrick in Chicago and myself to the lake with a college friend, so we were on our own.

Meal Plan for Monday June 13 - Sunday June 26

Monday - Spinach salad with roasted vegetables
Tuesday - Veggie lasagna
Wednesday - Kale and napa cabbage salad with beets, blueberries, and cottage cheese
Thursday - Mushroom farfalle
Friday - Salad with avocado, carrots, walnuts, tomatoes
Saturday - Brunch Smoothies and oatmeal
   Lunch Leftovers
   Dinner Basil pesto orzo with mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes
Sunday - Brunch Grits, avocado, egg
   Dinner Leftovers

On Monday I acquired all of this (and more) from my dad. I shared what I could with neighbors and then made lots of pickles with cucumbers. Most of the squash got eaten and what zucchini didn't make it into zucchini bread was shredded and frozen in 2 cup portions for future zucchini bread.


Tuesday - Porkloaf with squash and filet beans
Wednesday - Roasted chicken, potatoes, green beans, beets
Thursday - Salad with beets and grilled squash | Peach and blueberry crumble for dessert

Friday thru Sunday - Patrick in Chicago; Whitney at the lake

June's going to be a little light on the blog! We're figuring out which way we want to head with the blog over the next year and, unfortunately, that may mean less posts. In the meantime we'll be dropping in with Meal Plan Mondays and some of our new recipes that we're trying and really liking. See ya 'round!
