Meal Plan 2/22/19

Happy Friday again! I’ll tell you, it’s been an adjustment to get my meal planning done on Friday so you can have it for your weekend shopping, but I hope it’s worth it – meaning, I hope it’s useful for you. Of course, it does help me too. It just takes something off my plate for Saturdays.

This week’s plan will be shorter than last since breakfast and lunch looks the same every week in my house. If you want to get fancy with those meals, have at it. And please share if you have an amazing lunch or breakfast recipe. I’ll be giving you our dinner plans for the week only. Here goes…

Monday: Another inspiration from Mix and Match Mama: Honey Pecan Chicken. Doesn’t this one look delicious? I love how simple it seems too. Naturally, I will tweak this a bit – primarily cutting way back on the honey. I’ll write it up for you once it’s perfected for our Paleo ways. I’ll be cooking up some broccoli and some of Trader Joe’s famous Cauliflower Gnocchi to go alongside.

Tuesday: Baked Spaghetti and Salad

Wednesday: Salmon Patties, sautéed squash and rice.

Thursday: Jambalaya (since my son declared we don’t eat this nearly enough!) and cauliflower rice

Friday: Kids in the Kitchen!! Chicken nuggets, sweet potato fries and fresh fruit or veggies – whatever is left in the fridge!

This is such an old recipe, my pictures are terrible! I’ll have to make sure I re-photograph this meal. My daughter is into making things pretty so I’m sure she’d be happy to help.

And because I have an extremely painful tooth right now: Applesauce! **Someone please tell me you have successfully rehabilitated a tooth and prevented a root canal or extraction. I have never had anything like this before, but I don’t know how much longer I can take the pain. I’m taking lots of CBD oil and Curcumin for pain. I’m using clove essential oil topically for pain and a tincture of St. John’s Wort, both to help with the pain and hopefully bring that nerve back to life. And my dentist has given me ozone injections. Is there anything else I can try? Please send me your best advice.

That’s it for this week. Happy planning and happy cooking!

❤️, Elizabeth
