Tips for this Week's Meal Plan

I didn't include ingredients for NYE, so be sure to add your selections to the grocery list.
Cut your pork loin roast in half and use half for Apple Pork Roast and Half for Pork and Sauerkraut. The pork roast should be on sale this week for New Year's.
Use sweet potatoes for Vegetarian Chili, Hasselback Sweet Potatoes, and any leftovers for breakfast-so delicious served with yogurt and granola.
On Friday, make extra rice and serve with stir fry and Tikka Masala.
Use leftover rice and produce to make a quick stir fry for lunch and/or add to ramen.
Use any Yukon gold potatoes for mashed potatoes and for the sheet pan Salmon.
