Meal Planning Monday: Week 3

We totally crapped out on the meal planning thing over the weekend, unfortunately. I feel sufficiently guilty about it to say that I am confident we will not crap out this week.

This week will feature

Jerk tofu, mashed cauliflower, grilled zucchini with cherry tomatoes & cheese

TLT sandwiches and fava bean soup

AfR Mango BBQ Baked Beans, steamed broccoli, rice

PPK Cabbage and Rice Soup, green salad

Grilled portobellos, lemon roast potato packet, green beans, greek salad

Saturday is the wedding for which I am doing 150 vegan cupcakes, so this week's meal plan doesn't feature anything super exciting; I wanted to stick with things that are easy and fast.

Meal Planning Monday: Week 1

I hate how easy it is to not meal plan and then end up eating out a million times per week. It's wasteful, not very healthy, and not very economical. Time to jump on the meal planning bandwagon. 

Dinners
Mango baked beans (AfR),steamed broccoli, green salad
Macaroni & cheese (Pioneer Woman), cauliflower, asparagus
Crockpot chili, cornbread, kale salad
Tofu po'boy sandwiches and grilled parm eggplant
White bean & kalamata salad, grilled portobellos and zucchini
BBQ Tempeh and Citrus Salad

It's a big salad week, evidently, but it's already four thousand degrees here in Guelph (*almost* makes me wish we lived near the lake) and slaving over a hot stove is not my idea of a gay ol' time. Also, Dash has been enjoying the simple delights of iceberg, cucumber, and red pepper salads with simple balsamic dressing, and you can never go wrong by adding more greens! Anyway, this list will take us through Saturday, and since these guys are all to serve 4 people (with the exception of chili, some of which we will freeze for later, and tofu po'boys, which will lose their glorious crunch) we'll have our lunches made too!
