Happy December everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. On Sunday I went to our local Holiday House Tour that showcased six houses that decked their halls, kitchens, mudrooms and more. It always gets me in the holiday decorating mood. We have our tree up and I’m surrounded by boxes of Christmas goodies left to unwrapped. The next few weeks are busy with holiday parties to attend so our meal plans have to be flexible. We have a few freezer meals ready to go in case our weekly plan goes awry.
In addition to having some freezer meals prepped, we have a few fallbacks when we are not up for cooking.
-Eggs (Frittata with extra veggies in the fridge is a favorite)
-Sandwich night (Grilled cheese, Tuna melts, etc)
-Pasta and sauce with olives or capers. Simple yet comforting.
-Oatmeal with a little peanut butter mixed in, or walnuts and some berry jam.
-C.O.R.N.~ Clean Out Refrigerator Night
