Back to Meal Planning

This week I decided I would try meal planning to see if it would help saving money and also time. I went through my fridge and cabinets to see what I already had on hand to use and what I need to pick up at the store. After doing a bit of creative thinking I have finished my plan for the week and it looks as follows:

Monday

B- Overnight oats with almond butter, banana, and walnuts

Snack- Broccoli with hummus

L- Salmon patty with pita, hummus, and tomato. 

Snack- Sesame sticks

D- Tofu, brown rice, and veggies

Tuesday

B- Protein pancake

L- Tofu leftover

Snack- Kind bar

D- Black bean burger and sweet potato fries

Wednesday

B- Overnight oats

L- Black bean burger and sweet potato fries (leftovers)

Snack- Sesame sticks/broccoli with hummus

D- Salmon with pasta and veggies

Thursday

B- Pita with egg whites and 1 slice of yogurt pepper jack cheese

L- Salmon pasta leftovers

D- Going out to dinner

Friday

B- Overnight oats

L- Pita with salmon burger and hummus

D- Possibly going out to eat

I also picked up some extra ingredients at the store to make this little gem...

Quinoa pudding. Last week I picked up some rice pudding at the store on a whim and man... it quickly has become a new favorite. I figured I would try to make my own and make it a bit healthier by using quinoa!

Also on the agenda for this week is 

- 2 kickboxing classes

- 2 body pump classes

- Old Crow Medicine Show and The Lumineers concert

- presentation at work

.... ready set go!

Yours truly,
