Staying motivated, when you're busy - when it's hot - when you're tired - when life keeps getting in the way - is hard!
Trying to keep the budget down this week, I've tried to re-use the same ingredients as much as possible. I'm doing my shopping on Wednesday this week so that I can take advantage of my husband being home and do my shopping *gasp* alone! Also known as, "Mommy vacay".
Meal Plan:
Wednesday: Spinach-dip quesadillas with kale chips on the side and a garden salad.(Spinach dip from Trader Joe's)
Thursday: "Good to Go" Meat Pies from our freezer with lemon, feta asparagus on the side.
Friday: Dinner party! Feta and spinach stuffed mushrooms and Greek pita pockets stuffed with homemade tzatziki, Greek salad and meatballs and a side of Greek lemon potatoes!
*Lemon blueberry coffee cake for dessert :) *
Saturday: Garlic mashed cauliflower with a side of balsamic-thyme roasted mushroom and any leftover meatballs from the night before...if no meatballs are left then substitute grilled tofu.
Sunday: Zucchini roll ups (changing filling to feta and spinach), a side of quinoa and garden salad.
Monday: Spicy buffalo cauliflower bites with blue cheese dip and meatless-hot dogs.
(Blue cheese dip from the bulk section at the coop, meatless Italian sausages from Trader Joes)
Tuesday: Zucchini cakes with wild rice and garden salad.
Wednesday: Avocado mac and cheese and garden salad.
Thursday: Asparagus and pea wild rice (additional side dish TBA)
This week's garden salads with have lettuce and spinach from the garden (yay!), cherry tomatoes, avocado, sunflower seeds, cucumber, shredded carrot and strawberries, with homemade balsamic dressing.
Happy eating everyone!
