As I am on a limited budget, I am attempting to meal plan.
I attempted OAMC (Once a Month Cooking), but I found that I actually enjoy cooking, so I never used the stuff that was in the freezer. Now that I am in Brooklyn, and thus almost 45 minutes away from my school, I can see the practicality of having food available at home. If I know I can nuke something, it makes it less likely to get food to go in the city before coming home. So, I think my current strategy is to have smaller meals in the freezer, rather than large items, and to make plan overs rather than full freezer meals.
So, the meal plan for this week looks like this:
Monday (last night): Chinese takeout (finally found a decent one in the neighborhood).
Tuesday: Chicken Marsala. Will pick up Marsala wine on the way home, and mushrooms are being delivered.
Wednesday. Will put chicken thighs into the crock pot during the day, to have chicken meat available for Green Chicken Enchiladas. Will post recipe later this week. Will also post procedure for chicken meat and stock. (Very easy) :)
Thursday. Italian Sausage Spaghetti (with planned overs for lasagna.)
Friday. Leftovers :) Or fried rice. Or something, I havent decided yet.
Saturday. BBQ at a friends place :)
Sunday. Perhaps Tikka Masala
