But I tried to plan my meals last week around using up all my food, which helped make a dent. Here's what I planned:
FOODS TO USE UP: Meatballs, cilantro, salmon, feta cheese, pancetta, Irish soda bread, edamame, corn, tortillas, marinara sauce
MEAL PLAN:
Saturday: Edamame soba noodle bowl with a homemade sesame soy stir fry sauce
Sunday: Meatballs with a BBQ sauce glaze, roasted sweet potatoes and broccoli
Monday: Salmon with lemon and parsley, grilled balsamic vegetables, and herb roasted potatoes
Tuesday: Pasta and meatballs with marinara sauce and veggies
Wednesday: "Cobb salad" with a hard boiled egg, pancetta, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and feta cheese over baby spinach with a lemon Dijon dressing and Irish soda bread on the side.
Thursday: Green goddess bowl from my Refresh cookbook with marinated tofu, steamed greens, brown rice, nori, a lemon tahini sauce, and toasted sunflower seeds.
Friday: Leftovers from Thursday.
GROCERY LIST: Bananas, apples, sweet peppers, zucchini, kale, spinach, cherry tomatoes, regular tomatoes, avocado, parsley, lemon, broccoli, large white potato, ginger, black beans, tofu, eggs, and milk.
When was the last time you moved? Any tips?
What was the last recipe you made from a cookbook?
