Meal Plan Monday // Week 2

I'm excited about this week's meals! I tried to mix it up a little for us - Tex-Mex, Italian, BBQ, and (paleo) Chinese.  They're all pretty simple recipes!

Even though I'm not super busy with school right now, we still have a lot of work going on around the house.  Who knew so much stuff comes with getting married?!

I find that making meals that can be served more than once is a HUGE help for cooking during the week.  For example, I have a meeting in the morning, so I'm prepping lunch for tomorrow (enchiladas) tonight, and it'll be easy to pop in the oven tomorrow when I get back! Even better, there's enough for lunch on Tuesday, too!

Here's what I have planned for the week:

Monday/Tuesday - 
B: Meal Replacement Shake + banana
L: Enchiladas + rice & beans
D: "Spaghetti" (Squash) with meatballs + salad & broccoli

Wednesday/Thursday -
B: Meal Replacement Shake + banana
L: Honey BBQ Chicken Burgers + coleslaw, green beans & chips
D: Paleo Teriyaki Chicken + "rice"

Friday -
B: MRS + banana
L: Honey BBQ Chicken Burgers + coleslaw & chips
D: Pecan crusted salmon + salad & corn

Snacks vary by day, but I have strawberries, blackberries, and protein snack packs on hand :)



Saturday and Sunday we will be celebrating Hubby's birthday with his family! We're excited to see our nieces and nephew!!





What kind of meals are you looking forward to this week?

Meal Plan Mondays (late)

This week my husband and I decided we were getting back on track. Back to Advocare. Back to healthy breakfasts, lunches, and dinners... you get the point. 

The big change, though, is that Spens has agreed that we will not have carbs with dinner. We'll still use mayo and I'm sure I'll make a balsamic reduction eventually, but no bread type forms. It's already really hard. Really really hard. 

Breakfasts:

Spark + Emergen-C

Meal Replacement Shakes - Mint Chocolate Brownie and Chocolate Peanut Butter (omg) + banana

Lunches:

Leftovers

Gumbo (here) + rice & salad

Dinners:

Chicken salad + veggie

Skirt Steak fajitas 

I'm so excited! I already feel better properly fueling my body with Advocare products. We'll even be placing an order early courtesy of the Cyber Monday week long special!! (White Chocolate Peppermint Shakes, come to mama!)

If you're interested, you better hurry! Catalyst has already SOLD OUT of the event pricing :(((

Annnnd I beat my mile time today! First time under 9 minutes in at least a couple years! 

(I just find this hilarious)
