Plan day... Tuesday?  3/31

Boy are we off this week! We were on a trip all weekend and rolled back into town after dark last night. Needless to say, we're a bit behind. Our organic order arrives today with bananas, kiwi, plums, mangoes, oranges, beets, carrots, chards, and red potatoes.

Tuesday - Thai curried chicken (a crock pot recipe I've been wanting to try, perfect for busy or tired days and will use carrots and the peas and onions left from last week's order, cheese we got last week, and chicken from our freezer).

Wednesday - Stuffed portobello mushrooms (vegetarian) along with baked root vegetables (uses beets, carrots, onions, and potatoes - all of which are being delivered or we already have on hand)

Thursday - Leftover chicken

Friday - Leftover mushrooms

Saturday - We are having company on Saturday and I plan on making homemade pizzas (using cheese we got on sale last week, and sauce and onions from our stock)

Grocery list - Our dinner list includes coconut milk for the Thai chicken, portobello caps, and more pizza toppings (uncured pepperoni and mushrooms).  Just OJ on our breakfast list, and no lunch list this week.  Organic flour is on sale this week at Meijer so I will buy a couple of bags each, white and whole wheat, to stock up, and I will be watching for the pasta sauce to go on sale as well, since I will be using lots of that on Saturday and will need to replenish our stock.  As usual I will check the deli and meat counter for organic meat sales or specials (last minute price drops on same day sell-by meats are a great way to save money - I just bring them home and freeze them for later!), and as a special treat the organic strawberries are also on sale this week at Meijer, so maybe I'll even grab some organic cream and make strawberry shortcake for Saturday's dessert (it's just too bad we weren't in town in time to add that to our dairy order - their cream is so, well, creamy!).  Oh, and our edamame and brussels sprouts supplies need to be replenished, too.

Have a happy week!
