And Now the Meal Plan

This is a crowd-pleasing meal plan this week! My kids will enjoy dinner every night! I’m going to keep telling myself that until I believe it! LOL! No really…actually…these are a lot of our favorite recipes. Tonight, in celebration of Cinco de Mayo, we’ll have shredded chicken tacos, and the kids really like them! I’ll have to blog about my Spanish quinoa soon. I make this instead of Spanish rice, and nobody even complained about it! I’m going to have a little more time on my hands this week than I did last week, thank goodness! I’ll be able to spend a little more time in the kitchen. Hopefully not TOO much time though. 🙂

I’m starting Insanity this week, which I’ve built up in my head to be this super, crazy, impossible thing that is hard, intense and demoralizing. I am hoping that the more I convince myself of this, the more relieved I will be to learn that it is not the case. I will do the fit test tomorrow, so we’ll see how it goes. I’ll keep you posted!

Have a wonderful week!

This is a less than exciting plan this week, but it was a busy weekend, so I just went with some tried and true recipes. Friday nights are always Friday Family Fun Night at our house, and my daughter wants “breakfast dinner”. I’ll likely make some protein pancakes for me and whoever wants them, and another batch of the old-fashioned sort that she likes.

Other than that…it’s a bunch of repeats and things that I know are quick, crowd-pleasers. I’ll try to find some new, fun recipes for next week. I like to keep a blank copy of the meal plan out and accessible throughout the week, so that when I’m inspired, I can quick jot it down before I forget.

I hope your meals are planned for the week, and that your week is a good one. 🙂
