We made it through the week. The only hang up we had with 'the plan' was when I forgot to turn on the slow cooker for our enchiladas. Manatee saved the day by taking me out for Mexican food.
I have to admit that I was so hungry last night that I did not take the time to take a picture before eating. :)
Talking with Manatee, he claimed this was not a huge change from our normal routine because I usually cook a lot during the week. For me though, this was huge. It was so much easier having everything planned out and the grocery list in my wallet. It also made my lunches easier as I always had leftovers.
Next week will be a little tough as we have plans every single night but none of them include dinner. I mapped out our plan and we are really going to utilize the slow cooker. Here is our plan of attack:
Sunday:
Mushroom and Pecorino Tart
Tomato Pesto Crockpot Soup
Monday:
Enchiladas
Tuesday:
Leftover Soup
(We have a knife skills class and I know we will get turkey sandwiches at some point in the evening so we won't need much before)
Wednesday:
Slow Cooker Paella and Spanish Tortilla (hosting my bookclub)
Thursday:
Leftovers/Chicken Sausage Ravioli
Sweet for the week: Pumpkin doughnut muffins which I am going to take a brunch we are going to go on Sunday.
I will continue to keep you posted. :)
