Weekly Menu Planning January 2025

Actuals for Jan 20 week, cooking for 2 in MN. Where temperatures are now above zero again after a week of serious cold. I used the time indoors to collect/post/give away dozens of items on the local FB Buy Nothing group, and am planning to continue to clear out “stuff”. But taking photos, responding, and tracking pickup times for so many items was more work than I’d expected; I’ll do fewer at at time going forward.
Mon: French Cabbage & Sausage soup, naan bread, red grapes. Apple cider.
Tues: BAKED Bread machine whole wheat buns, dinner - (deli) smoked pulled pork on homemade buns, roasted cubed sweet potato, canned pineapple & cottage cheese
Wed: Reheat French Cabbage & Sausage soup, cheese bread (commercial), sliced tomato. Spinach & lettuce shreds.
