The Plan:
Day 1: Ratatouille (freezer supply)
Day 2: Quiche with mushrooms and leeks, Frozen fruit smoothie with oranges, frozen strawberries, and ginger
Day 3: Spaghetti with homemade pasta sauce, Garlic bread, Sauteed kale
Day 4: Christmas feast
Day 5: Leftovers
Day 6: Farmer’s casserole
Day 7: Crock Pot ham and bean soup
This meal plan was curated using local foods that are in season now or preserved during the peak growing season in the U.S. Midwest. The plan is an exact replica of what our family is eating this week unless we are out of town. Meal plans are developed using whole foods and my meal planning system (click here!) and are meant to be healthy and easy to prepare. Most recipes will take no more than 30 minutes of active cooking time. Occasionally meals may require all day slow cooking, advanced prep, or some oven time. Recipes are provided when available. I sincerely hope this will help with your own meal planning!
