Meal Plan for Week 37 (Group 2)

Week 37 Summary
Notes for this week
To save prep time on Day 2, make enough rice on Day 1 to use for the Chinese Chicken with Cashews and the Crockpot Roast Beef and Gravy on Day 2. If you do not have cooked chicken in your freezer to use in the soup on Day 3, sauté some extra chicken on Day 1 (without seasonings) to use in the soup. Make a large enough roast on Day 2 to have leftovers for the roast beef sandwiches on Day 5. Visit the Acorn Squash recipe post for more details about choosing and cooking acorn squash (including step-by-step photos).
