Meal Plan Monday: September 21st - September 27th

Oh momma is it a crazy week.  Lots of out of the norm meetings and events but I think we are ready.  I took page out of Hello Fresh's book and prepped and labeled this week's dinners per meal.  Hopefully this helps bring dinner together even faster. Has anyone tried a meal delivery service like Hello Fresh?

Monday: Chicken Cobb Salads
This is a tradition version mixed with the Healthified version in the Fixate cookbook.  Here is how I make this for the kids.  For some reason they love entree salads but fight me on eating a side salad with dinner.  Everything is prepped and ready to go for at work/before meetings.


Tuesday: Dinner at the County Fair
We usually go for the pulled pork.  What is you favorite thing to eat that the fair?

Wednesday: Crock Pot Chicken Burrito Bowls
Recipe from Two Healthy Kitchens
It's good to have a hubby that gets to telework. He can help with dinner! ;)

Thursday:  Chicken Piccata with Asparagus 
Recipe from The Beachbody Blog
Thursday have become interesting since my oldest eats at the dance studio.  My youngest wants what her sister is having so my husband and I have a night where we can cook some the foods they don't like. We have not had this in a long time because my youngest does not like anything lemon or lime.  It's one of my top favorites.  I am leaving out the artichokes for my husband.


Friday:  Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
Nothing special here.  Spaghetti with a "clean" jar of sauce with cooked ground meat added.  You can use a low fat ground beef or ground turkey.

Saturday: Dinner Out!
This momma has asked for a night out of the kitchen.  No cooking or cleaning dishes.  (We switch off.  If one cooks the other cleans.)
I am making Minestrone soup out of the Fixate cookbook for lunch.

Sunday: Chili with Cauliflower Breadsticks
I'm not sure which chili I want to make.  My normal chili or the Fixate chili.  Or a chili from the new Cooking Light magazine.  All I know is that it is time.  I hope it doesn't turn out to be 90 degrees that day.
Breadsticks recipe from Autumn Calabrese
People rave about these breadsticks so I think it is about time I give them a try.

Meal Plan: June 28th - July4th

I can't believe that July is here already!  Something told me this summer was going to go by fast.  Dance is back this week so we need quick meals but keeping them healthy.

Sunday: American Bison Burgers

I will make these when I get home from work and pack them so we can eat in between classes.

Tuesday: Spaghetti with Sausage
Dance starts at 6:00 this evening.  What is quicker than pasta?
Recipe from Cooking Light

1 yellow (2 if you got em), 1 green (I count the tomato sauce as a green since it is not jarred), 1 red

Thursday: Travel Day

Meal Plan: October 18th - October 25th

Hi Everyone!! Sorry for the week off.  Our fall has been super busy and last weekend we were back in Connecticut for our niece's wedding.  I think all the traveling caught up with me because I was exhausted last week.  Since my last post I have made a life change.  I have been doing Beachbody's 21 Day Fix for 15 days now.  As you know, I work pretty hard at not turning to fast food because of our busy schedule but our quick meals have started to be not so healthy.  So here goes my first crack at a kid friendly 21 day fix approved meal plan.

Skinny Sloppy Joes - Recipe by SkinnyTaste.com 
   Sooooo much better than Manwich.  We all loved it.  Hubby said it would be a great base for a chili.  Side note: I left out the mushrooms.
