February Meal Plan

in meal planning

I’m giving a monthly meal plan a try for February. I live alone and am cooking for one plus I have a reduced appetite because of the chemotherapy so I’m planning two to three home cooked meals per week and I can work on the leftovers for the other meals or eat some of the fillers listed at the bottom.

Week 1:

  • fajitas (meat presliced and seasoned is in the freezer)
  • chicken and cornbread dumplings (recipe from The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook, slow cooker)

Week 2:

Week 3:

  • fajitas (meat presliced and seasoned is in the freezer)
  • chicken paillards with lemon butter sauce, mashed potatoes (recipe from Martha Stewart Living magazine)
  • baked ravioli (recipe from Everyday Food: Great Food Fast, will substitute tortellini since I already have some on hand)

Week 4:

  • shepard’s pie (recipe from Make It Fast, Cook It Slow, slow cooker)
  • polenta wedges with asparagus (recipe from Everyday Food magazine, will move this item around to an appropriate week if there is a good sale on asparagus)

Fillers:

  • pasta with or without turkey meatballs (meatballs from the freezer)
  • canned soups
  • chili (from the freezer)

This is a great menu plan. I find it difficult to cook for one but seems like you have the right plan.

How are you feeling?
