If you’re looking for something healthier, check out Kim’s Paleo edition. I may grab a few ideas from her for my menu plan in a few weeks!
I love this! But… what do you do for breakfast and lunch? I have dinner down, but I am TERRIBLE about planning lunch – so I often end up with something not healthy or going out 🙁
Since it’s just me and the little one for lunch, I don’t really plan it. He likes sandwiches or we make homemade lunchables for him and I usually have leftovers or grilled cheese and soup.
I eat leftovers or a salad or eggs or just graze for dinner. Lunch is rather random around here.
ooooh that Cowboy Casserole can be easily modified for Paleo. I might try that next week. I love sweet & sour meatballs too!
I love planning our meals for the week. It is just hubby and I now so I only do dinner too.
I have soooo got to start meal planning for my sanity’s sake. Thanks for the inspiration!
I really want to do a meal plan but it’s just me and how fun is that to plan a meal for one seven days a week? It’s not. Ok, the boyfriend comes over sometimes but still…
I love that you are putting your meal planning out there. I go in spurts where I do great at meal planning and then I do awful. The weeks that I do awful we eat out a lot. Your meals look yummy!
I really need to get back into doing this again. It’s so hard now that our daughter has a job and we never know when she’ll be home for dinner though.
I semi plan our meals when I make for me.
