This Week's Plan

I'm struggling this week. I am absolutely uninspired about food. I start my new job tomorrow, so it's more important that I have a plan this week. But I honestly don't want to think about it.

In my fridge right now, I have cauliflower, carrots, leeks, parsnips, brussels sprouts, spinach and parsley. I also have white potatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, grapes, oranges and strawberries. I have frozen berries, peas, green beans, and tri-color peppers. I have two pork tenderloins defrosting as well. I do not want to go to the store. I'm just feeling lazy and uninterested.

So, I'm making a very rough plan for the week, because I need a plan.

Sunday: Grilled pork tenderloin with honey mustard glaze, spinach salad, and roasted brussels sprouts with pecans and parmesan.

Monday: Pork Fried Rice made with brown rice, peas, green beans, carrots, and peppers. I'll make the brown rice a day ahead so it's the right consistency.

Tuesday: Pork Cubanos (grilled pork sandwiches) and Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Fries, plus spinach salad

Wednesday: Spaghetti & meatballs with hearty marinara sauce (lots of veggies for me), salad

Thursday: Veggie Bean Soup (made from Buckeye Bean Mix) & cornbread
