Wow Dusty, your going to eat the same thing everyday for the next month? I thought I was bad. Lol. Jk! I usually eat the same thing 2-3 times in a 10 day period. It does make cooking easier. I do have the same thing every nightfir dinner though.

Ok, so we don't eat big dinners here. Never have. Well not since having kids. Before kids I could eat 2,500 and not gain much weight. Lunch is our big meal.

So here's this weeks lunch menu..
Parmesian noodles with fried (fake) chicken
Choplet casserole (another fake meat) served on rice
TVP burgers with sweet potatoes fries
Stirfry and egg rolls
Baked potatoes
Speghetti


So our dinners are like this ...
Kids: cold cereal and toast or tortilla rollup with pbj or Nutella.
Me: Whey protein shake with banana, strawberry, low fat yogurt, pb2 powder, flax meal
Hubby: whatever he feels like pulling out of the cabnet. Hope to get him on board with me soon!!!

Sorry for any typos...on my phone.

i have ground turkey stuffed cabbage rolls , turkey burgers, chicken marsala , brown/red rice stuffed chicken breasts and horseradish panko crusted pork loin chops in the fridge already made up

1 Cup of Steamfresh Corn
1 Cup Sauteed Cremini Mushrooms
1 Cup Sauteed Summer Squash
1 Portabello Mushroom Cap

Desert is 1 cup of Nestle Caramel Hot Cocoa (100 calories) and two Pepperidge Farm Cookies... my preference is Brussels since two cookies = 100 calories.

I always make enough for 4 people ( it is just me and my hubby) so we have leftovers for lunch the next day.
This is what is planned. Sometimes we just have a bowl of oatmeal, cold cereal or egg scramble. Depends
on the day and how hungry we were that day.

I don't even know what we're going to have for dinner tonight. I can't imagine trying to plan the whole week in advance!

Everyone's plans sound so yummy!

Monday- Chicken paninis (skinnytaste)
Tuesday- Pizza and salad(we're both craving it so I figure we better do a slice or 2 before we eat the whole thing)
Wednesday-Chicken and Broccoli casserole
Thursday- Thai beef noodle bowl
Friday- open for leftovers ;-)
Saturday- Ribs and sweet potatoes
Sunday- A Turkey- we're starting a new SB tradition, a turkey with some healthier sides and then we'd be okay to snack on veggies. And next week's menu will have lots of turkey recipes!!

We do our menu for Friday - Thursday because we grocery shop Friday nights, so part of our menu is already gone. We usually take one day off per week from cooking. Everything we cook serves at least 4 so leftovers are the following day's lunch.

[Saturday] - Mini Lasagnas
[Sunday] - Broccoli & Bowtie Pasta (Farfalle)
Monday - Chicken Caesar Wraps
Tuesday - Tacos
Wednesday - Veggie Stir Fry
Thursday - Protein Waffles

Mon: Vienamese beef pho
Tues: Smoked salmon & dill crustless quiche
Weds: Thai green chicken curry & cauli rice
Thurs: Pesto topped salmon fillets & rocket (arugula)
Fri: Sausage & 'Mash' (made with cauliflower)

As you can see- I follow low carb
