Food - meal planning

The boyfriend wants to start cutting down on the amount we eat out, including lunches, so he was gung-ho to meal plan this week.

Today, Sunday, we are having chili for dinner. This makes a lot and should be good for leftovers for a couple of lunches.

Monday, we're having chicken with roasted tomatoes and a pan sauce. We had this once before with moderate success. I'm going to make a few changes and hope it turns out well.

Tuesday, we're having Jamie Oliver's spicy Dan Dan noodles. This is on regular rotation and made it on the menu this week as the Asian dish. Makes a good portion of leftovers.

Wednesday, the boyfriend will be at a local rotary club meeting, so I will be on my own. Since my track record last week included Mac and cheese, I'm not too positive about this dinner.

Thursday is good ole meat day. I'm going to get pork chops from the local butcher and do them up right. Maybe potatoes sliced thin and pan roasted and a vegetable. Simple easy delicious, and slightly decadent.

Friday is up for grabs. We both aren't working that day so we'll have time to come up with something on the fly.
