This Week's Plan

I'm feeling a little loosey-goosey about planning this week.  I don't really have a set plan.  But I've given myself lots of options.  I was at Costco yesterday, and they had these gorgeous hams on sale.  So I bought one, and I'll cook it tonight.  That will give us a ton of options through the week.  I also got sweet potatoes, broccoli, green beans, peppers, mushrooms, and pasta.  Plus I'll make a hearty bolognese sauce today.  I'll freeze most of it, but we'll use it one night this week.  Then next week, it's easy to make a chicken parmesan or even a pizza one night.

As I said, it's loose, but the plan goes something like this:

Sunday:  Baked ham, roasted broccoli, sweet & spicy sweet potatoes

Monday:  Baked ham, sauteed green beans, mashed sweet potatoes

Tuesday:  Spaghetti Bolognese with extra veggies for mom.

Wednesday: Macaroni & cheese with ham & broccoli  (I'll make this Tuesday night and bake it Wednesday)

Thursday:  Grilled ham & cheese sandwiches with broccoli salad

I'll freeze the ham bone with the excess meat hanging off it and use it to make Navy Bean soup for next week.  I love ham for its versatility and complete reusability!
