If you're able to get out a Peep induced coma long enough to meal plan, here is what we'll be having this week. Hope it brings you some inspiration.
Just a reminder, breakfasts for Troy and myself are either eggs, oatmeal, or smoothies. Jack eats breakfast at my aunt's house. Lunches for Troy and myself are leftovers from the night before and a big container of carrots. Jack has the same thing: AB&J (homemade almond butter and jam), cheese, a little ham, a few bunny crackers, and maybe some dried fruit.
Monday:: Cast iron skillet frittata and home canned fruit.
Tuesday:: Crockpot Buffalo chicken sandwiches on homemade rolls, coleslaw, and home canned fruit.
Wednesday:: Home canned tomato soup from last year's garden, paninis, salad, and sectioned grapefruits.
Thursday:: Homemade pizza, leftover coleslaw, and sectioned grapefruits.
Friday:: Popcorn and fruit on the couch while watching a movie from the library. I've given up on planning meals for Fridays.
Saturday:: Homemade gnocchi (maybe), salad, and fruit. My friend Anne is coming in for Jack's birthday party and I'm going to try to make gnocchi for her. It is a good thing I did so many kegals while pregnant, or I would literally be peeing my pants in excitement for her to get here!
Sunday:: Jack's birthday party! We'll be serving homemade pizza, salad, some dips with chips, punch, and chocolate cake.
Great plan!! And good wholesome eating! I think we all eat better when we PLAN our meals.
ReplyDeleteWe'd definitely eat more poorly if I didn't meal plan. Grabbing a pizza or takeout is very easy when it's dinner time and nothing is ready!
DeleteSO EXCITED!!!
ReplyDeleteMeal planning is the best way to eat healthier and cheaper!
ReplyDeleteNow... If I could just better at advanced meal prepping, then I'd be good to go!!

I love how pretty much everything i homemade from scratch in your plan! I plan a few days in advance max, never really a week, but it's always inspiring to see what pple have got planned!
ReplyDeleteI'm only able to head to the market once a week, so I have to plan 7 days in advance or all hell breaks loose!
DeleteI've never made a frittata. How do you do that? I'd love to try one!
ReplyDeleteYou're in luck - I'm planning to write about it on Thursday! It's basically a simple egg "pie" with lots of goodies in it. It's one of my favorite weeknight meals because it comes together within 20 minutes.
