The meal plan for this week features five meals that use Easter leftovers. Spaghetti Carbonara is a great way to use up ham and Egg Salad will put the Easter eggs to good use!
All of the links to the meal plan recipes are below. To hear me walk you through this meal plan, listen to the end of Jump to Recipe: E81 – Why We Love Podcasts by clicking the play button below, or search for Jump to Recipe wherever you get your podcasts. In this episode I also talk with Roger Anderson, host of the cooking podcast The Kitchen Counter, about how he got into podcasting and our mutual love of podcasts as a form of passive learning, which saves us time and makes chores more enjoyable.
