Eating Down the Freezer {Menu Plan Monday}

It’s been a while since I wrote up a weekly meal plan and my wallet is feeling it.

Yesterday I took a freezer inventory:

Yes, I have 34 lbs. of organic ground beef in my freezer.  Also a turkey, and a lot of pork, and four gallon bags of cooked black beans!

I try to keep a very deep pantry, but it’s gotten crazy and disorganized lately.

Time to clean it out for Spring Cleaning!

Here’s my plan to eat down the freezer (and pantry):

Monday:  Dijon Maple pork loin (crockpot), wild rice pilaf, kale salad (a kit I got from Costco)

Tuesday: enchiladas (using ground beef instead of lentils)

Wednesday: chicken farfalle pasta salad (with the pretty bow tie pasta I took out of the package to display attractively in glass jars that is now taking up way too much room in the back of the pantry.)

Thursday: Pork fried rice (using leftover pork tenderloin from Monday)

Friday:  black bean soup with indian fry bread. Or maybe just tortillas. We’ll see.

Saturday: Asian sliders (but with ground beef instead of pork), sesame green beans

Sunday: Roasted chickens with potatoes and carrots, vegetable mix

Linking up!
