Meal plans

Meal plans are a tool that makes life easier and more efficient,  the more efficient you are, the better and less hectic life becomes.

Our meal plans usually are based on a protein matrix,  beef, chicken or pork, and vegetarian,  sometimes a fish.

• Mom out : daughter cooks 
• Pizza
• Potato soup, cheezy biscuits 
• Tacos, Spanish rice, refried beans 
• Chicken stir fry (Facebook) 
• Chicken aka king 
• Breakfast for dinner, 

Notes : 

I am working on a blog on how many meals can be prepared from a six pound chicken. Some we have already eaten, the rest of the chicken was separated and frozen.   My husband would have squawked if I fed him chicken six days in a row. Lol 

1. Pizza is a mainstay.  Easy when the crust is made in bulk and frozen and the cost is a dollar a cheese pizza.  Add toppings that have been leftover from other meals or not.
2. Potato soup and cheese biscuits come in at less than 1.50 for a total of four servings when ingredients are purchased at RBP.  
3. Tacos are from already cooked hamburger, rice can be batch cooked for Spanish rice and the chicken aka king.  
4. Chicken stir fry is from a recipe on Facebook with the addition of parm, cooked chicken, and maybe some red pepper flakes .  Green beans, and zucchini were both really inexpensive at sprouts.  
5. Chicken  ala  king is an old recipe.  Use magic mix and add frozen peas and maybe some chopped red peppers .
6.  Breakfast for dinner is a mainstay.  Everyone cooks.  It may or may not be economical, depending on what you cook and the amount of meat you serve.  Eggs are cheap.   Fruit in season is always a hit.
