Here is week 2 of our menu plan. For the Chicken Tikka Masala, we buy the sauce at Trader Joe’s and follow the instructions on the jar. It’s really easy and really yummy.

Remember, the idea behind my menu plans is I try to utilize one protein for most of the week, as the end of the week nears, I start with my next protein and so on. If, for example, you see steak one day and steak salad the next, the thought is that you buy enough steak in bulk to save money and use it more than once. Same holds true for chicken. And, of course buying a whole chicken is a lot cheaper than buying pre-cut, skinned, boneless breasts, but it all depends on how much work you want to put into this.
