Meal Plan Monday June 23

This week, I have to step back from trying to hide veggies in my family’s meals. I thought my husband was going to come unglued when I told him there was cauliflower in last week’s mozzarella sticks!

2 garlic cloves
1 onion
2 carrots
2 stalks of celery
3 lbs. boneless beef stew […]

Meal Plan Monday - April 21
