Tips for Getting Ahead
Saturday:
Print out all the recipes for the week.
Click on the link provided and add all the groceries to your cart.
Look through the meal plan table at the ingredients provided in the cart and the presumed ingredients. If you do not have a pantry item, make sure to add it to your cart.
Add any other groceries to your online cart that you need for the week (cereal, bread, milk, etc).
Schedule a time to pick up your groceries or have them delivered.
Read through the recipes and the “Tips for Getting Ahead” to prepare for the week.
Sunday:
Prepare the Beef Stew tonight and allow to cool and store in the fridge. Then tomorrow all you need to do is warm it up!
Load a freezer bag for Friday’s Crock Pot Chicken and Dumpling Soup (this will be the chicken and the vegetables). Label and place in the freezer. The cook time on low in the recipe is only 6 hours, so if you have to work a full day, putting the meal in frozen will allow for a longer cook time of 8 hours (this is what I do!).
Thursday:
Assemble the necessary ingredients in the crockpot for Friday’s dinner. It will likely still be frozen in the morning and that is okay as my crock pot will be on for about 8 hours before I get home from work!
Set an alarm for the morning to remind yourself to start the crockpot.
