Meal plans

The old adage make a plan, or plan to fail works here.  Having a meal plan saves time and money and a lot of stress at the dinner hour.

We ate a lot of pork last week, so this week we will concentrate on chicken.

• Chilli 

•  Pizza 

•  Baked potato bar 

•  Chicken pot pie ( crescent rolls) 

•  Chicken parm 

•  Ham and Swiss cheese sliders , oven fries, vegetabke platter 

•  Breakfast for dinner

Notes:

1. Chili is from beans already cooked.
2. Pizza is a mainstay. A cheese pizza costs a dollar if made from scratch and ingredient purchased on sale, 
3. Baked potato bar uses leftover chili and sour cream, cheese, and any refrigerator leftovers 
4. Chicken pot pie uses crescent rolls purchased for .67.  One crust cuts  the carbs.
5.  Chicken parm can be made in the insta pot without the chicken,  add salad 
6. Ham and Swiss cheese sliders are from rolls purchased at the bread outlet.  Oven fries use almost no oil.  Toss potatoes in a little olive oil. 
7. Breakfast for dinner is a family meal. Everyone cooks.
