Aug 10 – Aug 16
This week it is very hot and we are all getting ready for back to school season. People will be coming and going with appointments and end-of-summer friend hangouts. This weekend I need to restock the pantry with my homemade granola for my son to create his own Acai bowls. I also ran out of my taco seasoning, so I’ll be making some of that too. I’m looking forward to testing a simplified Spaghetti and Meatball recipe for Sunday supper. I have a few favorite recipes and techniques to combine into an easier, yet still so tasty, Spaghetti and Meatball. For weeknight meals, I am only planning on making three this week. The rest of the nights we will use up some freezer food or pantry options. For lunches, I prepped the rest of my Kevin’s Meals from last week with a side of roasted vegetables. Simple, healthy and we still have plenty of time to enjoy the pool.
Weekend restock: Homemade Granola, Taco Seasoning
Sunday Supper: Homemade Spaghetti and Meatballs – recipe testing
Weeknight Meals: Chicken Baja Bowls, Lemon Orzo Pasta with Shrimp – recipe coming soon, Cheeseburgers and onion rings.
