And there you have it! I didn't follow the meal plan to the letter, but, I mostly selected from the options I had listed with some changes.
On to this week's meal plan options! Here are the options for August Week 3:
Brunches: Scrambled eggs and toast (Monday); French toast; fried egg and cold cuts sandwiches; hamburgers; Waffles or pancakes with bacon and blueberry compote; leftovers
Dinners: Stringhopperswith chicken curry and garbanzo beans (chick peas) curry; Rice with chicken curry, kale, moringa curry, and garbanzo beans curry; Burritos (from the freezer); Tortillas and chicken curry; leftovers
Snacks/Desserts: Fruit, protein shakes, yogurt, ice cream, cookies
Those are the planned options. We might stick to these options or go off them, depending on how things work out. I am planning to order some groceries mid-week (just waiting to see what this week's specials will be, before I order anything). The meal plan options might change based on what I buy, too.
As always, I am grateful for being able to make meal plan options and being able to go off plan as the mood strikes me. It's truly a blessing to be able to do so.B
How about you? Are you making any meal plans this week?
