Weekly Menu Plan, 03.01 - 03.07.09

I'm trying to get back on the Menu Planning Wagon this week.

Well, here's what I have in the freezer:

• 6 meals worth of raw chicken
• 3 meals worth of cooked chicken
• 1 meal worth of cooked ground beef
• 1 meal worth of bite-size raw steak
• 1 meal worth of raw beef roast
• pepperoni
• sausage

Now for this week's plan:

• Frito Pie = chili (ground beef), cheddar cheese, corn chips, sour cream, black olives.
• Easy Chicken Parmesan = raw chicken, spaghetti, left over sauce, green geans, Cheddar Bread.
• Roast, potatoes, carrots, gravy, Biscuits.
• Easy Breaded Chicken (raw chicken), Hashbrown Casserole, green beans.
• Homemade Pizza, pineapple chunks.
• Sausage, Hashbrown Casserole, scrambled eggs.

*************************************

I have cooked chicken in the freezer because I bought 3 giant packages a couple of weeks ago for less than $2 a pound. Then I cooked all of it, shredded some, left some whole and packed it in freezer bags in meal sized portions.

The idea came from my friend, Meredith at Life at 7000 Feet. Go see what else she has to say about menu planning!
