Well first things first. Use up the stuff that is oldest first. I am just guessing in this order but you change it around as you like.
Dinner 1:
Chicken fried rice with stir fried celery, carrots, leeks, water chestnuts and an (onion). You could heat up the chicken fried rice and stir in an egg if you like.
Dinner 2:
Take your hamburger meat, 2 eggs, a little milk and seasonings to taste (I use garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, pepper, and seasoning salt). MIx together, form into a loaf on a baking sheet and bake your meatloaf for 1 hour at 350 degrees. Top with ketchup if you have that or you could use a can of soup in a pinch. Serve with your mashed potatoes and a canned veggie of your choice.
Dinner 3:
Cook your fish sticks. Meanwhile, boil noodles of your choice and when done drain and top with butter and a can of soup thinned with milk. I would use cream of celery, chicken, mushroom if you have these. Serve with a canned veggie of your choice.
Dinner 4: Take your frozen chicken breast and thaw it and season it and saute in olive oil. Remove from pan and add in a little tomato paste and water/wine/or soup of your choice. Serve your sauce over pasta or your frozen raviollis and top with cheese.
Dinner 5: Have your corn dogs, tater tots, and curly fries one night.
Dinner 6: Cook your steaks seasoned with your seasonings of choice. Serve with canned veggies and a baked potato if you have it.
Dinner 7: With what you have left I would make a soup or stew. Take your ramen noodles with any veggies or meats left over and cook slowly for an hour or two. Season as you like. You may add in any canned veggies or other noodles you like.
Breakfast 1: Cottage cheese with oranges and kiwi sliced and scrambled eggs.
You can use your little smokies at breakfast or at dinner.
This is just a guide. Change it up and see what you can come up with. Have fun!

U2fanforever did a great job at giving you several meals. I could come up with 1 or 2 meal ideas, but she basically covered them, and then some. She has my vote hands down!! Good luck.
