I have a houseful of BIG eaters…we go through lots of groceries! My four boys eat like their daddy, and their daddy has a big appetite!
To make my home a haven this week, I decided this weekend to really focus on getting as much food prepared ahead of time as I could so that at snack and meal time, I wouldn’t feel frustrated and worn out.
I began by planning my meals for the week like I usually do. Then, I got to work!
I baked four loaves of Honey Whole Wheat Bread, made a double batch of Whole Wheat Tortillas, baked a batch of Chocolate Chip Cookies to put in the freezer, made a pan of homemade Graham Crackers, put together the Layered Beef Enchiladas we’ll be eating on Tuesday and cooked and deboned a chicken so that we’ll have the meat and broth to work with. I also cut up a fresh pineapple and a bunch of carrot sticks.
Many dirty dishes later, this is what I have to help me this week:
Not that you’re counting or anything, but you will notice that there are only three loaves of bread pictured…(see above description of my family of big eaters).
I look forward to more efficient meal prep this week! And now…I’m off to do more dishes!
