Meal Planning

It's supposed to be hot this week -- in the 90s -- so I want to make some easy dinners that don't involve heating up the whole oven.  I also want to use up as much stuff I have on hand as possible.

Portobello Mushroom Stroganoff
I have some egg noodles and sour cream I can use up on this recipe.  I think the only thing I need to buy is mushrooms.

Red Beans & Rice
This is healthy and easy.  I have chopped green bell pepper in my freezer I can use up here.

Smoky Potato Salad over Greens and Baked Beans and Corn on the Cob
I'm not sure if the russet potatoes I have are still good, so I have to check.  As for the corn, I like it best boiled and then lemon juice squeezed on top.  I already have at least one can of beans.  We still have leftover pasta salad I made a few days ago in the fridge, so I might do all this for dinner tonight.

I think this is all I'm going to plan for now.  This will get me through Wednesday, and I have spare ingredients for things like brinner or macaroni and cheese that I might do starting Thursday.
