I so badly want to have a blog, but I just can't seem to get in a routine of adding articles. It's not that I don't have new recipes (I think I do at least 2 a week) and I have the time sometimes (when both kids nap). I'm going to try and at least post meal plans with links so I can keep my recipes for the week straight.
Some notes about this week:
- using up the 10lb box of sweet potatoes from Costco
- yes, half the meals are meat free. We have been doing this for a month now and we don't miss meat and we can get a week of groceries for under $65-75- yes, that includes breakfast (oatmeal most days) and lunch (leftovers most of the time).
Monday: Garlic Tuna Pasta w/ Asparagus (adding green beans and using whole grain pasta)
Tuesday: Sweet Potato and Kale Soup over Brown Rice
Wednesday: Asian Turkey Lettuce Wraps
Thursday: Vegetarian Enchiladas
Friday: Sweet Potato, Quinoa, and Feta Salad
Saturday: Chicken Sausage w/ Asparagus, Brown Rice
Sunday: Leftover/Whatever night...
I'd say Kate and Jack both eat the majority of what we eat on any given night. Neither have any issues with whole grain pasta, brown rice, whole wheat tortillas, etc. and any soup is always a success. Kate does have an aversion to green veggies so she'll pick out the asparagus and kale, but she loves colorful food and we always have fruit options on hand as a side dish.

Not only heart healthy but also wallet friendly!
ReplyDeleteWe've also purchased the 10 lb. box of sweet potatoes from Costco but recently have not been able to find it. They say it's a seasonal item (fall) so they won't have it any time soon :( Am going to take a peak at your recipes!
ReplyDeleteHappy cooking!
