Meal prep in the last few days...

Sesame Chicken.  Would have been nice if I had sprinked some sesame seeds on it, huh?  Maybe some diced scallion tops?  

Before I started the vegetables, I cooked a couple of packages of chicken breasts.  I've discovered that I like them pounded and cooked in a hot skillet, then on low for awhile to cook through.  The pounding is kind of a chore, so I figured I would thank myself for cooking a bunch and vacuum sealing for future meals.  Bonus:  only one clean up.  :)

Tonight I made Mexican Casserole again...this time I remembered the cornmeal, so we liked it much better than the last time where it was more like a quiche!  LOL

While it was in the oven, I used a couple of garden tomatoes and made fresh salsa to have with it.  Enough was left in my small food processor bowl for tonight, and the rest went into a jar for the fridge to be used in the next couple of days.

The grocery order a few days ago was a high-dollar one.  I had used up most of my freezer 'staples' so stocked up on bacon, sausage, flour, a few easy-prep frozen dinners, and the chicken that I cooked and vacuum sealed for storage.  We should be set for awhile.  And there's still garden bounty to be used too.
