It does not seem possible that we are already into the 3rd week of October. I know I say this every week but time sure does fly. These last couple months I have found it even more important to have a menu plan and a to-do list every week because once Monday hits I don’t have anytime to think about what to eat or do.
This week’s menu plan is going to be very easy. I still have a bunch of meals and meal starters in the freezer so we are finishing up what is left. The only thing I am really out of is breakfast burritos and pancakes. I had every intention of making them last week for dinner but that did not work out. Don’t ask me why because now I can not remember for the life of me. So this week is going to be a cereal and oatmeal week.
Also, I realized that I need to be more intentional with adding fruits and vegetables to my diet. One day last week as I was getting ready for bed it popped into my head that I did not eat one fruit or vegetable that entire day. I did not like that at all so I am going focus on getting more roughage in my system. One of the things I plan on doing this week is eating a large spinach salad for lunch everyday. I will let you know how it goes.
Okay let’s get to my menu plan for the week.
