Menu Planning Monday

Day 1:
  • Breakfast: Easy Crockpot Breakfast Pie
  • Lunch: Cold Cut Sandwich on Paleo Bread
  • Dinner: Zoodles and Squoodles Pizza Casserole with tossed salad and your choice of dressing
    • Cooking tip: Zoodles and Squoodles is very watery and must sit for more than an hour to absorb all the liquid.  If you meal prep, slice your yellow squash and zucchini and allow it to sit with sea salt on towels to release moisture while you begin to prepare other components of your meal(s).  Then slice your noodles into linguini noodles and your casserole should have next to no liquid once it's done cooking.  The reason that this is on Day 1 is so that you can begin with releasing the excess moisture while preparing days 2 - 7.  This way by the time you complete meal 7 your casserole will be cooked and your refrigerator will be full of wonderful meals! :)  ENJOY!!!
Day 2:
  • Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs (no milk, just whisk your eggs and add some seasoning)
  • Lunch: Leftovers
  • Dinner: Crockpot Fajitas
    • Modifications needed: Skip the packet of taco seasoning and use this recipe:
      • One Packet: 1 teaspoon chili powder 3/4 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon cumin 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander (Optional) 1/8 teaspoon cayenne 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • Skip the shell and use butter lettuce or large romaine lettuce leaves
    • For Paleo no sour cream - but a generous topping of guacamole and you won't even miss the sour cream! :)
Day 3:
Day 4:
  • Breakfast: Paleo Breakfast Burrito
  • Lunch: Leftovers
  • Dinner: Cashew Chicken with  Asian Salad
    • Modifications Needed: 
      • Sub out the brown sugar for Maple Syrup or skip it all together!  
      • Olive oil for Canola Oil.
      • Almond flour for all purpose flour
Day 5:

Day 6:
Day 7:
  • Breakfast: Pure Banana Pancakes (we eat these at least once a week because they are great cold as a snack for the kids as well...and they are so quick and easy!)
  • Lunch: Leftovers
  • Dinner: Clean out the refrigerator because tomorrow starts a new meal plan!!! If you have leftovers, try to finish them up to go into the next week, or take a break from cooking tonight and go out to eat!!!

Menu Planning Monday



Day 1:
  • Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs with Canadian Bacon and Diced Tomatoes
  • Lunch: Petite Cucumber Turkey Sandwiches & Strawberry Almondade Yogurt Parfait (toasted Almonds and fresh sliced strawberries)
  • Dinner: Rotisserie Chicken* & Steamed Broccoli with your choice of seasoning
*De-bone your chicken saving all the bones and leftovers of chicken scraps, and broth/"juices" from your chicken to make stock overnight in your slow cooker!!!  You will also need to same all your left-over chicken for tomorrows lunch.  See the recipe for overnight stock here. (When getting ready to make stock, many of the ingredients are the same as what is in your Chicken Healing Soup, so make sure you prep the ingredients at the same time for maximum use of your time and ingredients!)

Day 2:
Day 3:
  • Breakfast: Pure Banana Pancakes
  • Lunch: Leftovers or if you don't have any, I do a kid friendly meal for my children of Ian's gluten free fish sticks or chicken tenders with a side of sweet potatoes.
  • Dinner: Chicken Tacos
Day 4:
Day 5:
  • Breakfast: Eggs (Scrambled, Hard Boiled, Fried) and Keefer
  • Lunch: Yet again, leftovers...but try something different, if you have leftover salad and pork tenderloin, add cold tenderloin pieces to your salad and enjoy...same meal, new spin on it!
  • Dinner: Pineapple and Ham Kabobs , Sweet Pepper, Grape tomatoes, Tossed Salad Greens and Pineapple Cilantro Lime Dressing
*For the dressing add a half can of pineapple or more depending on the sweetness and thickness of the dressing.  I prefer to add a fresh pineapple and its juice. or use this alternative recipe: 

Paleo Lime Pineapple Dressing 
Delish dressing for fruit and vegetable salads
Juice of one lime
1/2 Cup pineapple juice
1 Tsp ground ginger
