Weekly Meal Plan

I thought it might be helpful for me to post this week's Meal Plan for you to get ideas. 


I know that panicked feeling.


It's Sunday and you've got the rest of the week ahead...and all you can think about is "Cooking meals is NEVER-ENDING!" 


Sometimes, it's exhausting to think that you'll be cooking dinner for your family every night for the next 20 some odd years or more...


geez. 


After that depressing interlude, I think I'll help lighten your load by sharing some of my meals with you. 


Use them if you'd like. Otherwise, continue the insanity.

Breakfast: Whole Wheat Blueberry Pancakes (see recipe in blog...these FREEZE SO WELL!! You can eat them fresh or defrosted)
Lunch: Egg Salad Sandwiches (recipe on blog) with carrots and hummus
Snack: Yogurt with homemade granola (see recipe on blog) and crackers (Triscuits have 5 ingredients or less)
Dinner: Crock Pot Japanese Chicken with Whole Grain Rice and Edemame
