This menu is designed to be a zero leftover situation. By the time you reach the end of the week, you should have been able to repurpose the earlier dishes into new meals. The shopping list is coming in at 80$ for a family of four,

Despite having 2 meats on the menu, this week is decently light. It will provide a good amount of healthy vegetables and balance it out with a dallop of indulgence, which works for me. You can’t be good all the time.

here are a lot of places in this menu where you can make easy substitutions, and also where you can clean up the fridge.

There are a lot of ways you can make substitutions here, and if you are gluten free, you’ll have to. Luckily we have a lot of great gluten free carb options, and if you want to substitute spaghetti squash for the pasta, feel free.

Ok, this assumes that you have a healthy spice cabinet. If you don’t, you are going to want to go ahead and get your dry goods flushed out.

That night I ate the cheese, folks. I ate all the cheese and my pants didn’t give me shit for it. Which is as it should be.

Do not pretend that your vegan “cheese” is cheese. Your gluten free “biscuits” are not biscuits. Your vegan “pizza” IS NOT PIZZA

Who is a kitchen witch? This girl.

I want a time machine to go back and slap that little-girl me in the ass and say, “Enjoy it now, kiddo, because one day….one day…..”
