Weekly shopping tips:

  • This week its all about recipes you can put in your slow cooker. These small appliances are great in the summer because they don't generate a lot of heat in the same way turning on your oven would. Slow cookers are also great for having a meal ready after a long day out enjoying the summer fun!
    • 2 cans of spaghetti sauce
    • 2 1/2 lbs. ground beef or ground turkey
    • 5 cups of mozarella cheese
    • I like to buy cheese in bulk at Costco or Sams Club for great savings. To store the excess, I seperate it into freezer bags and store in the freezer.
    • Tossed salad, cole slaw, a vegetable tray, and spinach are all suggested sides to this week's meals that do not have their own recipes.


Monday

Dovetailing Tips:

  • Use half of the ground beef or ground turkey tonight, then store the remaing in the freezer for crockpot pizza on Thursday.



Tuesday

Dovetailing Tips:

  • "Bake" extra chicken for quick meal of hawaiian haystacks tomorrow night.


Wednesday

Dovetailing Tips:

  • Use leftover chicken from last night for haystacks!


Thursday

Dovetailing Tips:

  • Use remaining ground beef or ground turkey you stored in freezer on Monday


Friday
