This week's meal plan is all about using pantry staples to make pizza pockets, spicy jerk chicken, juicy Greek meatballs, and pasta!

This week, please welcome Rachel Knecht and her meal plans! Rachel is a recipe tester here on Simply Recipes and is the blogger behind Baking with Rachel.

I find grocery shopping to be a delicate dance. There are weeks when I buy too much and frantically try to find ways to use it all before it turns inedible. Other weeks, it feels difficult to scrounge enough together for school lunches.

I am trying to combat this problem by planning more meals that I can make from the pantry items I keep on hand. This week’s meal plan uses items I always keep stocked in the house, so dinner is within arm’s reach!
