(lunch most days…well half a sandwich)
For those of you are new to my blog I write these weekly plans to help me spend less (I kinda of love grocery shopping, yea I know I’m weird), to save time and to try and help us eat in more often. Also I love knowing what other people eat so I thought it would be fun to share. For a while I’ll be adding my plans for what greens I’ll be eating since one of my resolutions is to build a habit of introducing more green veggies into our diet. Maybe some day it’ll be so normal for us that I won’t have to mention them any more.
I had my first official go at making burgers and I think it turned out pretty good. I mashed up black beans and put them on the bottom bun with some BBQ sauce, then some meat, a slice of colby jack, bacon, onion straws and the top bun smeared with BBQ sauce. I think it turned out pretty tasty. Besides that one meal we ate out like 3 or 4 times last week, I think for the most part I just didn’t feel like cleaning the kitchen but I’m going to get it clean and get back to cooking properly this week.

I’ve been trying to do the same thing. I’m trying to lose some baby weight, but most importantly, increase my veggie intake. Lunches lately have been 1/2 a pita stuffed with some hummus, lots of herb salad, sliced cucumber, and sometimes a slice of swiss cheese. I also have a handful of almonds and a big bunch of grapes. It is so filling and delicious!
