So my cat erased the original post by walking on the keyboard and closing the window I was writing in, but that's ok. Kitty love.
Yesterday I made a meal plan for the week. Dinners are the hardest to plan for. I chose 3 recipes and got the ingredients, plus staples (eggs, almond milk, goat cheese, apples, pears, etc.) Here's the plan for the week:
Mon - Thai green curry with chicken - an old weight watchers recipe I had printed out from the website. Freeze 2 portions
Tues. - trivia, so I'll be out, but I always get the same grilled chicken salad at caddies.
Weds. - Chicken and spinach soup with pesto which I cooked up today but added 1 c carrots instead of 1/2 c and also red pepper flakes for a kick.
Thurs. - Beef Stew Provencal - from a weight watchers cookbook. Freeze 2-3 portions
Fri. - out
Sat. - Kale and Trader Joe's turkey bolognese sauce, other veggies
Sun. - Leftover green chili
Yay! I use a lot of weight watchers recipes because they are actually pretty tasty and I have many of their cookbooks. Online sites like Eatingwell are also great resources. For the paleo side of things, health-bent has some great meatball recipes, though they don't put calories so I input the recipes into myfitnesspal to get the nutritional values.
Breakfasts I always eat the same things: 2 eggs with 1/2 english muffin or low carb wrap, or egg whites with a little cheese and green pepper in a low carb wrap, or occasionally oatmeal with almond milk.
Lunches are from what I make for dinner, which is why I cooked the soup today, so I would have lunch for tomorrow.
Ok, I'm sleepy and have to teach 6 AM spin class, so that's all for now!
Over here we are doing crockpot mojo pork. My hands stink of lime and garlic even after 2 or 3 washings. Ugh.
