    I don't have the days planned, but I did a ton of cooking/prep over the weekend.  I made lasagna, chicken noodle soup, and a chicken and brown rice casserole, so that's several lunches and dinners right there.  I also have salad stuff prepped and precooked chicken strips for the nights when we just want something light.

    We've got buffalo chicken salad sandwiches with sweet potato fries, pulled pork, and chorizo/black beans/sweet potato skillet on the menu this week. I usually only plan on 3-4 meals per week and then we eat leftovers the other nights. Makes life easier.
    chorizo/black beans/sweet potato skillet sounds really good.  Do your girls eat it?

    @jlkOK https://allrecipes.com/recipe/slow-cooker-chicken-and-dumplings/  We add carrots and celery to it also and I don't do 4 chicken breasts as that is way too much for the 3 of us. 
    Thanks.
