Prep for week:

1. Make soup for Monday’s dinner (& some lunches)
2. If you don’t have any on hand already, make salsa - this takes very little time to put together, but it needs several days to sit before it’s ready to eat, so be sure to start this today; or you can buy regular salsa from the grocery store (not nearly as good!)
