We are going to be slaves to the calendar to some extent this week, with something keeping us busy most evenings. Makes the meal prep and planning even more important!
Breakfasts:
Skinny Taste, one of my favorites for healthy ideas, posted this great 5 ingredient bagel recipe that I’m going to try for some make ahead egg, spinach and cheese sandwiches. I got an air fryer (the NuWave Brio – affiliate link) for Christmas, but she also posted oven directions!
Lunches:
My freezer is absurdly full of single serving items right now, so I removed a couple, and will use dinner leftovers for the rest. The ones I removed: Turkey Taco Bowls and My Take on Korean Rice Bowls.
Dinners:
Monday – This is a pressure cooker night, because one kid has football practice and I am teaching a class for FIT4MOM Phoenix Scottsdale from 4:30 to 5:30. So we will have this with a veggie tray made up of veggies I prepped yesterday: Pressure Cooker Lentil and Chicken Soup.
Tuesday – Oh look, another football practice…..seems like a good night for a crock pot/slow cooker meal. I love this one, because it’s just pouring all the ingredients in the slow cooker and ignoring it all day. It’ll just take me a few minutes to prep some add ins, and we are good to go: Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Chili.
Wednesday – I’m really hoping everyone still likes the Monday and Tuesdays dinners (they always have before!) because this is a leftover night.
Thursday – a no practice/no activity night, so we will have some fun and make Bee-Bim Bop together. This is a Korean recipe we found in a children’s book when my oldest was a baby, and is a crowd favorite. They love to help make it and build their own bowls.
Friday – Stuffed Peppers and a salad.
Saturday – Football is a late game, so we will grab something out.
Sunday – clean out the leftovers night! If it seems like we don’t have enough, I may try this recipe for Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup from Cooking Light.
Have a great week!
