We accidentally ordered a HelloFresh box this week, so we won’t be taking advantage of the great sales at Shaw’s this week, but if we were, our meal plan would probably look something like this: Some type of stew: With such large quantities of potatoes, carrots, and onions on sale, we would definitely be makingContinue reading “Weekly Meal Plan 1/24/21 – 1/30/21”
