Op here, back planning for the upcoming week!
We are having black bean burritos one night and another I’ll marinate chicken thighs in Italian dressing and bake with peppers and onions and serve over mashed potatoes. Will Probably do a crockpot salsa verde inspired by the crockpot thread. Shrimp, potatoes, green beans sheet pan dinner. Teens are busy this week so I don’t know quite yet when they will actually be home for dinner. I’ll grab some Trader Joe’s mandarin chicken as a backup. |

We have a LOT of leftovers!l We will probably eat some up for work lunches rather than try to stretch all across dinners, but I think we'll still be able to have:
1. Pulled pork, kimchi slaw, either sliders or tacos 2. Homemade max and cheese, possibly with any remaining pork and possibly with broccoli 3. Peruvian chicken with salad and roasted squash I promised the kids homemade pizza. I try to do a bean dish every week and I'm thinking maybe Ethiopian lentil stew with crusty bread. Then...I don't have a plan for the remaining two days. Will put DH in charge of one. So then we need some more veggie-focused meals. |

I make black bean burgers that are a big hit. Use canned, not dry/ soaked. (For most things, it's the other way around, but mushier beans make better burgers) You could also do different seasoning in your turkey burgers. I've done asian flair turkey burgers before, with soy sauce and sesame oil and chopped water chestnuts, in addition to the zucchini |
