- All salad ingredients are optional! Switch things up, add more of your favorite toppings, or ax any of the toppings you don’t like. Adjust your shopping list!
- Ask your butcher for the best cut to slow cook and pull for shredded meat.
- Use the carnitas for tacos, burritos, salads, or whatever sounds good to you! Be sure to add any other items you’ll need to your shopping list.
- The apple crumble is great for breakfast or dessert. Or even an easy Thanksgiving dessert to bring to a pot luck.
- Dressing ingredients are not included in the shopping list! Be sure to add them if you choose to make a dressing rather than buying pre-made.
- On your prep day, make sure to mostly cool the food on your counter (assuming your kitchen isn’t too warm) for up to an hour before refrigerating. If the food is still a little warm, I would cool it uncovered in the refrigerator, set an alarm for 30 minutes, then cover.
- Cheese and garlic amounts are suggestions, feel free to buy/use (a lot) more if that’s your preference.
- Grocery list is based on serving amount on the recipe, so make sure to update your grocery list if you want to make extra for leftovers (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) or freeze a batch of soup!
