Meal plan 1/25/16-1/31/16 and Wunderlist App

Hi everyone!

So, I don't know if I'll continue to post my meal plan each week, but I want to try it out.

Wunderlist App

Before I get to the meal plan, I wanted to tell you about an App called Wunderlist that I’ve been using for a few months and it’s helped me so much.  Y’all know I like to be organized, and this helps me do just that =).  I got the idea from a podcast called Edit Your Life Show.  Things I like about the app: 

     1)      It’s on my phone and so it’s convenient.

     2)      The ding it makes when I check something off =). 

     3)      You can set tasks to repeat (weekly, etc). 

     4)      You can also create multiple lists.  So I have one for my grocery list (I just use this when I’m in the kitchen…my real one is on my computer), to dos,  etc. I put all my cooking, defrosting, and cleaning stuff on here as well as general to dos.

Meal Plan

     1)    Breakfast: Chocolate chip oatmeal muffins – idea courtesy of Sarah.  Never tried before, but looking forward to it.  I have a less healthy version I’ve tried but am looking forward to these.

     2)      Perogies and Sausage (link kind) – I bought some frozen perogies and served with sausage a few weeks ago.  I want to try my hand at them.  I’m going to make a full batch and freeze some of them, which should make for an easy dinner one night paired with some meat.  I made these a few weeks ago and they turned out quite tasty, but were not the healthiest thing in the world =).

b.      If these turn out good, I’m thinking these could be a go to for us on Fridays during Lent.

     3)      Pepperoni bread – this is a new one for me too.  I’m going to use my pizza dough recipe for the bread and my pizza sauce for the dipping sauce.  You can totally just buy the sauce and bread =).

     4)      Meatball Hoagies – I made these a few weeks ago and Matthew loved them.  I have some hoagies left in the freezer from the first time, so it should be an easy meal.  I do cut down the spice for H’s sake (I leave out the hot pepper sauce and cut the cayenne to ¼ t). You can totally just buy the rolls and save yourself a lot of time! =)

c.      Other notes – I add pizza sauce and provolone slices on top of hoagie sandwich after assembling.

Next week, I’ll have to start figuring out what we are going to have for the Super Bowl on February 7!
