Hello lovelies! I hope that you are having a fantastic weekend! After a busy week and not having much time together, the man and I have been chilling this weekend. Friday night we went out to eat at one of our favorite restaurants, then came home and played a few games. Yesterday we just piddled around the house, I did some reading and got a nap in! Today we both need to get a few things done so that’s what we are working on this morning.
I sat down Thursday night and began working on a meal plan for this week and went to the grocery store. So today, I just had to decide what we would eat each day and make sure I have all ingredients…my trip to store was sort of a struggle, I forgot things on the list and they were out of other item, lol!
Sunday – Ribs, butternut squash, spinach salad
Monday – lamb chops, roasted broccoli and carrots, rice
Tuesday – lemon caper chicken & zoodles
Wednesday – beef stew
Thursday – creamy sausage & kale soup
Friday – Shepard’s pie
Saturday – wings, veggies to be determined
Trying just one new recipe this week, The Sausage and Kale soup. This recipe is from the Dec/Jan issue of Paleo Magazine. Ingredients include Italian sausage, onion, carrots, coconut milk and kale, to name a few. I will let you know what I think and share later on.
The rest of the menu includes things we eat fairly often in our whole food and Paleo-friendly lifestyle…though it has been too long since we have had ribs, I am really looking forward to those!!! And I always enjoy the lemon caper chicken, it is a nice bright lemon butter sauce and very satisfying. I am also going to roast a pork shoulder for lunches this week.
So there you have it for this week. What do you have planned to cook this week? Any new recipes that you are trying?
