Trim Healthy Mama menu #2

So my first menu went great.  Because of life, it actually lasted 2 weeks.  And we had leftovers or something simple (and still on plan for me) several times.  We also had family visiting so we ate out a few times and I did the best I could....sometimes better than others.  That's ok though.  I am feeling great and ready to keep on plugging along.  We've actually STILL not used recipes I planned to use on week 1....but this is what week 3 (menu 2) looks like on paper.

In my first week I found I do MUCH better with a good satisfying breakfast.  Instead of a carb laden breakfast.  I feel better all day.  One of my breakfasts is a fuel pull which is intentional since that day I will be having an early (likely at least slightly off plan) crossover lunch at a coffee shop.  So I'm keeping it simple and low all round to "prep" for that lunch.

BREAKFASTS

• Big Bowl Egg Scramble (tht 331)  (I love this one) 
• Egg over easy, zuchinni fritters (tht235),  and yogurt
• 000 yogurt, berries, egg whites
• Breakfast Casserole (cb 238)  -Family breakfast on Saturday
• Mocha Secret Big Boy smoothie  - before church on sunday

LUNCH

       Going to try to keep lunches simple this week. 

Meal Prep Sunday

• IP chicken
• Roasted Garlic and Cauliflower Soup

I can have soup with a piece of chicken breast and a slice of sprouted bread with laughing cow cheese for an energizing lunch.  Or I can have a chicken leg and thigh with a salad and ranch dressing for a satisfying lunch.  I know one day I'll be eating a crossover at my favorite coffee shop while the kids are at art class. I am planning for that and comfortable with it.  :)

• hot dogs/burgers with deviled eggs and leftover broccoli salad (saturday family lunch)

SUPPER

• Beans (tht 111) and cornbread (tht246)
• IP whole chicken with killer green beans
• Rich and tender stew (cb 38)
• Burger Bombs (tht 212)
• broccoli salad (tht 271)
• Flaky Parmesan Tilapia (tht 227) (I'll be using the fish we catch from our pond)
• zucchini fritters (tht 235)
• deviled eggs

I made several freezer meals before I had surgery and before I read anything about thm.  We'll be eating one of those this weekend.  I can not let them go to waste.  Again, I am making a conscious decision to go "off plan" to use this good food up.  One this week will not derail all the other efforts I made for the week.  I am fine with that plan.  :)

So that's my plan.  Im not including the grocery list this time because I just cleaned out my pantry and fridge and there are a lot of things in the recipes I don't need to buy this time.  I may try to update the post later on....we shall see
