Meal Planning Monday
We'll call this Favorites Week.
Because last week was Least Favorites Week. We pretty much scrapped the menu and ate what was in the fridge. Now I have cauliflower to get rid of (nobody really likes it all that much around here). The trick is to make things that people WANT TO EAT! Otherwise, what's the point?
So. Requests for this week are:
lentil soup
spanish rice
chicken alfredo pizza
Really they would prefer I feed them yogurt and butter/honey sandwiches with grapefruit. Every day. Three times a day.
With a green drink and maybe a banana milkshake thrown in.
Meal planning has been hard lately.
Here's what we'll try for breakfasts:
Honey Yogurt Waffles
applesauce on toast
granola with raisins
oatmeal with coconut
yogurt with flax
And some easy lunches:
stripple sandwiches
rice casserole
almond butter sandwiches, crackers and cheese, apples
grilled cheese sandwiches
nachos
And the favorites mentioned above plus two more easy:
haystacks
feta ciabatta sandwiches
lentil soup
spanish rice
chicken alfredo pizza
If that floats your boat, then you are very easy to please. :) Really, I feel like it's pretty boring. But it works. And that's what matters. I'll keep looking for unique recipes...but we'll keep plenty of good ole' in there too.
