Weekly Meal Plan
I thought long and hard about what my readers need most right now and I decided you all would like to see my weekly meal plans in action!  Did I make a good guess?
 
If you’re new here, you may want to get caught up on how I do meal planning.  If you are a die-hard reader bordering on stalker, then let’s just get right to it!
 
Many of you suggested I do a FULL meal plan that includes breakfast, lunch, & dinner.  Don’t be bummed when you see all the “leftovers” on the lunches.  I TRULY for realz do this.
PROS?  Lunch is waiting for me almost everyday in the fridge.  When I clean up dinner, I actually divide dinner leftovers  into my awesome stainless steel lunchboxes.  And what about my kids that go to school?  They either eat cold food, or I put it in a thermos.  It’s worth it for me to make extra dinner so I don’t have to think about lunch the next day. Real food can be easy! Let’s begin, shall we?
 
 
Sunday
Boiled eggs, toast with real butter & organic jam & raw milk.
Grilled cheese sandwiches & veggie platter.
Roast chicken, mashed potatoes with real butter, & steamed green beans.
 
  • After you’ve divided dinner’s leftovers into tomorrow’s lunch containers, save any extra chicken for tomorrow’s dinner.
  • Save the bones from tonight’s dinner.
Monday
Homemade yogurt & granola with fruit.
LEFTOVERS from Sunday dinner.
Alfredo sauce with whole-grain pasta and steamed broccoli.
 
  • While dinner’s cooking, start your homemade broth from Sunday night’s bones.
  • Aren’t ready to make homemade yogurt?  Be sure to buy organic, whole-fat yogurt.
Tuesday
Scrambled eggs, whole-wheat toast with real butter, raw milk.
LEFTOVERS from Monday dinner.
Butternut squash soup, salad with homemade yogurt/ranch dressing.
 
Wednesday
Soaked Oatmeal & nuts with butter, maple syrup & raw milk.
LEFTOVERS from Tuesday dinner.
Waldorf Salad – greens, feta cheese, pecans toasted with butter/real sugar, & organic apples.
 
Thursday
Kefir chocolate peanut butter smoothie
LEFTOVERS from Wednesday dinner.
Tuna Casserole with whole-grain pasta, steamed peas
 
Friday
Omelets with fresh veggies and cheese.
LEFTOVERS from Thursday dinner.
Homemade Pizza Night — here’s a great dough recipe
 
Saturday
Soaked biscuits, fried eggs(in butter) & fruit.
LEFTOVERS from Friday dinner.
Out-to-eat Night
 
 
 
Snack choices this week:  Organic fruit or Organic popcorn
Desserts this week: Homemade brownies, Homemade Ice Cream

    I really really want to eat better.

    I have a couple problems. I am not a fish eater. I just can’t stomach it. Any suggestions?

    Also, I’m allergic to peanut butter. Like anaphylaxis allergic. I know this is just a sample menu, but I’m LOVING it except for those couple of things.

    I would love some suggestions.

    I was wondering what kind of noodles you use for your tuna casserole? My kids love it…but I can’t find good noodles to work with. Love your blog!!

      I sometimes use whole-wheat pasta, brown rice or quinoa(corn-free) pasta. Other times I like to make my own(recipe coming soon), it just depends on the day!
