March 4 - 11 Meal Planning

<p>Through most of February, we didn't create a meal plan at all. It was terrible and caused a fair amount of stress. It reminded me how much I really dislike the just-got-home-from-work "what do you feel like for dinner" conversation. We end up going out to eat or getting take-out more often, and it just doesn't feel as satisfying. I am making a renewed effort to make time for meal planning each week. This attempt at making it a regular thing will revolve around doing as much of the planning as I can before I go for a run on Saturday mornings. Surprisingly, we don't have anything on the calendar for next week, which means I have a full slate of meals to plan for! The only piece to account for is that I am planning on running home from work on Tuesday - which means I need to do something in the slow cooker for that dinner.</p>

February 25 - March 4 Meal Planning

<p>I'm watching the Grammy's while trying to meal plan. It's terrible, because the acts go between artists that I don't care about and acts that I sort-of-kind-of want to enjoy. And then there are the performances that demand I stop what I'm doing and pay attention. These are the singers who pour their heart and soul into every word and it shows. Lady Gaga, P!nk, Bruno Mars, K$sha, Patti Lupone &#x26;ndash you can't help but be enraptured by their time on the screen. But enough about music, it's time for putting together this week's meal plan.</p>
<h2>What's In The Refrigerator</h2>
<p>Last week I started planning with a "what's in the refrigerator" and I found it really helped with putting together meals. Knowing what I needed to use informed me for what I needed to cook.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>½; bags of broccoli - good for three or four meals</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>1 bag of carrots medley - there are my new favorite way to get variety into vegetables.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>6 bell peppers (whole)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>¼ bell peppers (diced) - these are great for adding to salad</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Brussels sprouts - I have two bags uncut, and six meals worth chopped and in deli containers</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Salad greens - these expire quickly, so I need to used them all by Tuesday's dinner</p>
</li>

January 29 - February 4 Meal Planning

<p>After two weeks of solid meal planning, the third week got skipped entirely. Katie worked on Saturday and I was home on MLK, which meant that by the time my weekend was over, I was already thrown well off of a schedule. I never made time to do the meal planning and thus it didn't get done. Let that be the lesson for that weekend – whatever isn't made a priority doesn't get done. In order to keep these meal planning sessions going, I need to make it a priority. Even if that means it is prioritized over sleep. But here I am at 20:25, already starting to put together this upcoming week's meal plan.</p>
<h2>What's In The Refrigerator</h2>
<p>Starting with "what's in the refrigerator", this week; I'm hoping that by listing out the perishables and proteins that I have on hand this week, it will inform me as to what I should cook.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>½ a bag of broccoli - good for one meal, or two if combined with carrots</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>1½ bags of carrots medley - there are my new favorite way to get variety into vegetables.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>3 bell peppers (whole)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>1½ bell peppers (diced) - I diced up three of them, but used half of that for salad tonight</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Brussels sprouts - I have two bags uncut, and four meals worth chopped and in deli containers</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Salad greens - these expire quickly, so I need to used them all by Thursday's dinner</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Tortillas</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Hamburger buns</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>English muffins</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Shrimp (in meat drawer)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Boneless, skinless chicken breasts (frozen)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Ground beef, 85% lean (frozen, 1 lb. bags)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Chicken thighs (frozen, 4 thighs per bag)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Steak (frozen), probably filet mignons, individually wrapped</p>
</li>
</ul>

January 21-27 Meal Planning

<p>This is an experimental recipe. I tried it once, and then it clearly needed some tweaking. I've made the changes in the recipe below, and if it needs more adjustments after the second time through, I'll come back and update this post.</p>
<h2>Ingredients Needed</h2>
<h3>French fries</h3>
<ul>
<li>Russet potatoes</li>
<li>3 lb. lard</li>
</ul>
<h3>Hamburgers</h3>
<ul>
<li>1 lb. ground beef (85% lean)</li>
<li>¼ cup minced onions</li>
<li>2 tbsp. BBQ sauce</li>
<li>1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce</li>
<li>1 tbsp. soy sauce</li>
<li>1 tbsp. Dijon mustard</li>
</ul>
<h3>Cooking Steps</h3>
<p><strong>An hour before serving</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Fill large pot with water and 2 tbsp. salt, starting heating</li>
<li>Peel and slice potatoes (using <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007VU2HR6/">Potato French Fry Cutter</a>, largest size fries)</li>
<li>Once water is boiling, put first batch of fries into the water</li>
<li>Cook for 4-5 minutes - long enough to be soft, but not too long that they break when you hold them</li>
<li>Set cooked fries on a cookie sheet with paper towels</li>
<li>Let water return to a rolling boil, and repeat until all fries are cooked</li>
<li>Thoroughly mix all hamburgers ingredients (knead by hand)</li>
<li>Divide meat into 2 oz. portions</li>
<li>Form portions into very thin patties</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>30 minutes before serving</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Place large in large pot (can be the one previously used for boiling)</li>
<li>Turn heat on high, and bring to 380°F (<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L9X2RZS/">OXO Good Grips Glass Fry Thermometer</a>)</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>10 minutes before serving</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Heat cast iron skillet on high</li>
<li>Place two or three patties on skillet at a time</li>
<li>Heat for 1-2 minutes (they cook quickly), then flip for 1-2 more minutes</li>
<li>Remove from skillet and place on warming plate or serve</li>
</ol>


Hamburger and Fries Experiment

<p>The first week of meal planning went well... as well as a first week of any experiment goes. I didn't do a very good job of thinking about all of the sides and ingredients needed to accompany the main protein. Additionally, I didn't account for the time it would take to prep some of the dishes. Since I'll be back at work this next week, prepping food the night before or morning of is going to be key to successfully following the meal plan this week.</p>
