Tips for this Week's Meal Plan

On Sunday: Prepare extra BBQ Chicken. Use leftovers to make BBQ chicken later on Wednesday.
On Monday: Prepare enough balsamic dressing to use to dress the side salads and pasta salad later in the week.
On Tuesday: Prepare extra Chicken al Pastor. Use the leftovers to make a Southwest Salad on Thursday.
On Friday: Use fresh tomatoes and mozzarella to make a delicious summer pizza Friday night, and use any leftover mozzarella/tomatoes to make a caprese pasta salad.
Money-Saving Tips:
- Plan for plenty of lettuce (romaine, iceberg, or mixed greens), cucumbers, tomatoes, etc., for entree and side salads.
- No need to purchase mozzarella pearls or grape tomatoes for the pasta salad. Simply dice the remaining fresh mozzarella and tomatoes, then use them in the pasta salad.
- There is no need to add the baked sausage to dinner Saturday night, but it pairs well with it. You can keep it vegetarian or grill some additional chicken to dice and add to pasta (or even dice up precooked chicken sausage).
