On to Week 2! I have some fresh produce in the fridge which are no longer all that fresh and need to be used up.

What are you planning to make for your meals, this week?
Currently, we don't have a plan, so that's why we had Subway last night. However, there was a deal to buy two and get one free, so it worked out well. In addition, we were able to order online so it was an easy pickup. Tonight you have inspired me to make a chicken pot pie.
ReplyDeleteSubway sandwiches are a favorite with us, too, especially when there is a deal. :) Glad to hear you'll be making a chicken pot pie, tonight! Enjoy!
DeleteEverything sounds great! We will be having leftover beef and broccoli tonight :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Martha. Beef and broccoli is one of my favorites. :)
