Menu Plan Monday

This weekend was crazy so I didn’t plan my menu until very late Sunday night.  I had an absolutely terrible week last week for food waste; I was so embarrassed I didn’t even do a post.  Trust me when I say it was that bad. 

This week I’m trying to prevent that from happening again, so I’ve drafted a menu that uses up things in my refrigerator (spinach and a variety of cheeses being the two biggest things I’m concerned about).  I also seem to have an abundance of chips and crackers in my pantry; I foresee them making an appearance in my lunch box this week. 

I had dinner with my parents on Sunday and am cooking for dad on Tuesday lest you think I’m suddenly cooking major meals just for me. 🙂

Breakfasts this week will be blueberry-almond muffins and Greek yogurt parfaits.
