Day Two: 17 More Meals

Day Two went by fast! I accomplished a lot, though.

Here's the recipe list:

Easy Granola



Sausage Cheese Muffins


Taco Rollups
Simple Shredded Pork Tacos
Honey Mustard BBQ Pork Ribs
Pulled Pork Sandwiches
Honey BBQ Shredded Pork
Shredded Pork Sandwiches
Autumn Harvest Stew
Savory Beans and Rice
Cowboy Beef
BBQ Chicken
Caribbean Jerk Chicken
Fresh Fruit Cups


Breakfast Burritos (3 bags)



Here is a tip for working with large portions of meat:
I completed 5 different pork recipes today from one large pork shoulder (Costco has good prices on packages of pork shoulder roast in 11-14 pound increments). Before I opened the package of pork, I prepped the bags with all the other ingredients for the recipes. Then, all I had to do was slice the meat into the appropriate size for each recipe and drop it into the prepared bags. Once the meat was all cut up, I washed up, sealed the bags, and placed them in the freezer.

I thought this worked very well, since I didn't have to go back and forth from the raw meat to other ingredients for each individual recipe. I hope that helps!
