Food Plan and Grocery List, 012911

Last week, the food plan didn't work out so hot. The bread I had in the fridge had a tinge of mold, so sandwiches were out. Neither the Italian Roast Beef nor the polenta did it for me. I did what I could to eat at least half of each, but was getting quite sick of them and tossed them both today.

Korean 2 started a few weeks ago, going from 7-9:30 Monday and Wednesday evenings. I go directly from work and have been stopping at Jack in the Box on the way, eating Chicken Fajita Pitas or Jumbo Jacks. I need to be better about planning for dinner to accomodate those evenings in particular.

Because chickens are on sale for $0.69 a pound, I wanted to get my hands on some. This week, I intend to prepare:

  • Alabama Backwoods BBQ Chicken
    • Roasted Potatoes and Green Beans
    • salad
