Easy Quarantine Meal Plan for This Week

Check out my Easy Quarantine Meal Plan for this week. 

Easy Quarantine Meal Plan

Spending lots of time in the kitchen? I’m here to help!

Check out these simple, inexpensive recipes you can use to feed your family for less.  

Please Note: We’re all out here trying to do our best and while we’re all in the same boat in one sense, we are all facing slightly different circumstances. For example, from what I’m hearing each area of the country has access to different kinds of food right now. In my area for instance, non-perishable items like canned goods and flour are difficult to find, but fresh produce is abundant. 

So making a meal plan that works for everyone isn’t possible.

My main goal is to encourage you to:

1. Make some kind of plan to reduce your stress and your budget.
2. Give you permission to serve super simple meals.
3. Stir up some ideas for what you have available in your area.

I’m sharing what we’re actually eating this week which includes a combination of both pantry items and fresh foods, so hopefully you’ll find something you can add to your meal plan.

And hopefully you’ll be encouraged in your Quarantine Kitchen. 🙂

This week I cooked a huge pot of black beans (2 pounds), some of which we’ll eat in the next few days and some for the freezer. This saves me SO much time later when I can simply pull the pre-cooked beans out to add to recipes. And they’re way healthier and cheaper than canned beans!

And yes, those are Christmas lights hanging in my kitchen (anything to bring some cheer) — and yes, that painting is not hung on the wall. 🙁
