Today I cooked 2 whole chickens. One we grilled and the other I cooked in the crockpot (thanks to the suggestion of Erin). The one we grilled we ate and it was so delicious. The other one I shredded and will use some for salad topping for my husband and I during the week. The rest will be for the Chicken Taco Bake I am making.
Here is what we will be making for the rest of the week. Remember my menu planning is a flexible menu. Having a list of meals I know I have available to choose from keeps me flexible but focused at the same time.
Everything we are preparing for the week may not necessarily be something that I bought this week. I have had quite a stockpile in my pantry and freezers and I’m stocking back up again.
Here is our flexible dinner menu:
