Hey everyone. Can’t believe we are halfway through January. Bananas! My compost bin arrived so we’re going to start composting this week and get moving with this year’s resolution. Exciting!
I have a few carry-over items from last week’s menu on this week’s menu. I have been cooking, I just ended up with extra meals based on the groceries we had. Plus we unexpectedly met out of town friends last night at the Anaheim Packing District, which is a fun place with great food, by the way. It’s a little busy on the weekend, fair warning, but it’s great! And there is a park area just outside that is perfect for the kids to run around and be crazy, including sliding down the astroturf hill with pizza box lids as sleds!
MONDAY:
– Pork and Udon Noodle Soup (recipe to come!)
TUESDAY:
– Homemade pizza night (honey goat cheese and margherita)
WEDNESDAY:
– Caprese Paninis
THURSDAY:

FRIDAY:

Somehow I had forgotten that my one kid, who attends public school, had no school today. Thankfully the meals were already planned as the added dynamics, and my lack of structure for the morning, created quite the chaos at first.
I was so glad to know ahead of time what it was we were going to be eating. I knew it was something that needed about 2 hours in the oven, so I was able to start earlier than normal getting it ready.
My plan for leftover from last week? Lunches to send to school. We don’t normally have leftovers hanging around, so I am sort of happy to have that little detail taken care of ahead of time. 🙂
