No, so I'll do it now.
Tonight - pork chops with rice and whatever veggie I find in the fridge.
Tomorrow - Roast beef, potatoes, carrots
Wednesday - I'm not home so DH and Aidan are on their own. Probably something quick and frozen, like chicken nuggets or fish sticks.
Thursday - Spaghetti
Friday - swimming and eating out
No clue for the weekend yet.

Tonight - Sausage and Lentil Stew w/ rolls
(editing to incl. the recipe... if you like the ingredients list, the soup is really great!)
Tuesday - Broccoli Shells and Cheese
Wednesday - Crockpot Potato Soup w/ crusty bread maybe a salad.
Thursday - I am going to dig up Gillian's garlic chicken recipe.
Friday - I'll convince DH to take us out for noodle bowls.
Nothing planned for the weekend. I'll deal with that when I know if my nieces will be here or not.
My backup meal this week is Quick White Bean Soup .

I've been so bad about meal planning. I really need to start doing it again.

Do you pick or is it a different basket each week? I haven't done the math yet, but I am guessing you save versus grocery store prices for organic produce?
I've been doing some looking around and might order some.

We've got pork chops and chicken with pasta left on the menu. We'll re-visit the plan on Wednesday night or Thursday when we shop.

The price is about the same, better if you are in a co-op. The biggest difference is the quality and the shelf life at home is about twice as long as store bought produce.
They prepare a box for you based on your selection (mixed, vedgie, fruit, large, small , etc) and you can customize it from there - they email you on Friday and you have until Tuesday to customize it, delivery is on Wed for example.

^It never occurred to me about the shelf life but I guess it makes sense since it's not spending as long in shipping, etc.

Last night we had leftovers. Tonight we're having some sort of salsa chicken crock pot recipe I found on pinterest this morning. Wednesday my mom is making dinner. Thursdays are always leftovers or hot dogs because of it being Lily's dance night.
