Short Term Meal Planning

Spinach & Feta Pita Bake


Vegan Garlicky Korean Mac and Cheese 

 

Vegan Fried Chicken with Homemade Ranch Dip with Veggie Sides 

For veggie sides, I can make garlic spinach out of the spinach left over from the pita bake, salad from the leftover bag of lettuce in the fridge, and any baby carrots and broccoli in the fridge.

Fall Desserts

I keep thinking of autumnal desserts I want to make now that it's getting cooler outside. Here is a list, and I'll insert links to recipes as I find them. 

 

Pumpkin Butter

I haven't made this in over a decade, but it's easy and very good on toast.

 

Apple Pie Filling

I'm just gonna buy a big bag of Granny Smith apples and make a bunch of filling for eating, stuffing into hand pies, stuffing into wonton wrappers whenever I have some extras to use up, and maybe putting inside spice cupcakes like I did in 2020. I bought some canned pie filling last year in a pinch and discovered that it is now VERY OBVIOUSLY INFERIOR to the homemade variety.

 

Gingerbread Cookies

My favorite cookies.

 

Pumpkin Bread

One of the recipes I've been making for years.

 

Churros with Mexican Caramel

I've never made these before, but most churros I've ever had weren't fresh enough, so I'm willing to put in the work to have some that are really good.

 

Pecan Pie Cookies

I'm gonna make a batch of these to mail to my bff with her birthday gifts.

 

Carrot Cake

One of my favorite kinds of cake.


Cinnamon Coffee Cake

Meal Planning

I don't expect to make all these things, but I will have the ingredients on hand to select from this list. There are so many meals I'm sick of eating, but these seem okay for now.

 

Beyond Burgers and Veggie Sides

For Thursday, when Sameer's mom doesn't eat with us.


Thai Green Curry Noodle Stir Fry   

 

Red Beans & Rice 

 

Creamy Sun Dried Tomato Pasta with Garlic Soy Curls 

 

Butter Soy Curls

I'm not making the skillet lasagna this time. I'm just linking to this recipe for the sauce and cook time. I'm leaving out the noodles, adding green bell pepper and peas (at least), and serving with rice.


Spiced Spinach Tofu Stir-Fry and Brown Basmati Rice

 

Vegan Baked Chana Pulao

Because I didn't make this last time and I still have all the non-perishables.

Miso Gochujang Tofu Stir-fry

 

Vegan Baked Chana Pulao

 

Vegan Butter Soy Curl Lasagna Bake  


Wednesday we can bring premade items from Patel Bros.' equivalent of the deli section, and Thursday we can have leftovers and/or Gardein turkey cutlets, veggie sides, and sandwich stuff.


I also have a bunch of russet potatoes to use up.
