How about you? Did you make a meal plan, last week? If so, did you follow it? Are you making a meal plan for this week? What's on your meal plan?
No specific meal plan here, per usual. However, we did have company in town, so we had several ideas and ingredients to allow for different possibilities. Some we used and some we didn't.
ReplyDeleteMeal plan ideas are good. Or, even, just possibilities. I already went off my meal plan, today, because I decided that gyoza was just what I wanted to eat for brunch on a cold day after fasting for my blood test. I'll probably make some soup for dinner.
DeleteNo meal plan for me either other than the running one in my head which I do mainly so I don't have to cook everyday. lol
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me! There was a blogger who planned her meals so that there would be leftovers for the next day. I made some soup on Thursday and I've had that twice so far and neighbor S gave me more food, so I don't need to cook this weekend, unless I want to. :)
