July Week 1 Meal Plan Review and July Week 2 Meal Plan

Friday Night Dinner

This was my July Week 1 Meal Plan/Options:

Brunches: Milkrice with chicken curry (Tuesday, July 1)✓, leftover milkrice and chicken curry (Wednesday)✓, French toast (there's milk that must be finished); scrambled eggs and fried potatoes, salad with  leftover sauteed chicken, tuna salad sandwiches

Dinners:  Spicy beef stir fry with rice ✓and broccoli and/or cucumber salad;  Hamburger/cheeseburger with sweet potato fries and salad✓;  Fried rice; Leftovers✓

Snacks/Desserts: Blueberry yogurt loaf cake (yes, there's still a couple of slices left); yogurt and fruit or treacle; fresh fruit✓

And here's how that turned out (I kept an on-going record all week):

Monday:
Brunch:  Leftovers from Saturday's party (Mexican rice, grilled chicken, and grilled beef)
Dinner: Pizza (another party leftover) and salad
Snacks/desserts: Leftover birthday cake (from the party); plums

Tuesday:
Brunch: Milkrice and chicken curry
Dinner: Leftovers from Saturday's party
Snacks/desserts: Crackers with peanut butter; cereal; nectarine

Wednesday:
Brunch: Milkrice and chicken curry (leftovers)
Dinner:  Rice and spicy beef stir fry
Snacks/desserts: Crackers, nectarine & plum; piece of the blueberry yogurt cake

Thursday:
Brunch: Milkrice, beef stir fry, lunu miris (sambol); I made what I thought would be two brunches of milkrice, but, it turned out that I had made enough for three meals!  
Dinner: Leftovers from Saturday's party
Snacks/desserts:  Plums, crackers, chocolate

Friday:
Brunch: Scrambled egg and baked beans, a piece of mango, coconut water:

Dinner:  Cheeseburger (no bun), toaster oven baked sweet potato "fries", cucumber slices

Dinner:  Pita bread and beef stir fry

Pita and Spicy Beef Stir Fry

Snacks/desserts: Mango

Sunday:
Brunch:  Pita bread and beef (same as Saturday's dinner)
Dinner: Sauteed chicken sandwich
Snacks/desserts: Plums

I didn't quite keep to the meal plan for one reason or another, but, I think it worked out well enough.   I needed to use up quite a few leftovers and that's what I tried to do.  

Moving on to July Week 2.  I am trying to avoid grocery shopping this week, too.  I am also not wanting to cook much.  So, I am going for fairly easy meals based on what I have on hand:

Brunches: Pita bread and spicy beef stir fry (Monday); French toast or pancakes; peanut butter toast; egg salad or tuna salad sandwiches; leftovers

Dinners: Burrito (Monday); Breakfast for Dinner (scrambled eggs, fried potatoes, baked beans); ramen noodles with shredded chicken and vegetables; sandwiches; leftovers

Snacks/Desserts: Fresh fruit; yogurt and fruit or treacle; crackers and peanut butter; granola bars

Or, of course, something different as the mood strikes!  LOL.

Are you making a meal plan this week?
