Food Plan and Grocery List, 040112

I agonized over what to eat this coming week like no other. Chickens are on sale at Ralph's for $0.65/lb and pork picnic shoulders are on sale at Stater Bros for $0.69/lb. After looking at all of the possibilities for chicken and pork picnics, particularly those utilizing plain Greek yogurt, I ultimately stuck to my guns and decided on a shrimp dish to finally use those in my freezer. Besides, I don't need a 10-lb picnic no matter how fun it might be to prepare.

This week, I'm going to try some Caramelized Pineapple, Bow Ties and Shrimp in Spinach Pesto, and Rustic Individual Strawberry Tarts.
