Menu Plan: February 12-17

Good morning! I have decided to share our weekly menu plan details on the blog in an effort to make it easier to access the actual recipes we use 😉 I do adore Instagram, but the inability to share links can make finding recipes a little tough sometimes. So, here we go!

SUNDAY: We are going to make soup today. Evan has been asking for Chicken Noodle Soup, so I will be making a big batch. It will be great for his school lunch and Michael can take it to work, too. I am also going to be making a batch of my Whole 30: Italian Herb, Lemon and Vegetable Soup. I love this soup and feel like it will be excellent for leftovers this week.

MONDAY: We will be having a fabulous kale salad. I love using kale as a base because of how sturdy it is. Also, it is so nutrient dense! We will mix cooked quinoa, goat cheese, fresh berries, honeycrisp apples and cinnamon roasted walnuts and pecans this week. There are so many things you can do with salads- they are a great place to get creative and play in the kitchen. Love the apple/cinnamon nut combo we will be using this week. I will be sharing my recipe for the nuts when I make them- just haven’t ironed out all the spicy details yet 😉

TUESDAY: For Valentine’s Day, my focus is to create something I can make early in the day so that once we tuck the kids in I do not have to cook anything. I can enjoy Michael and we can spend some QT together. The plan is to create a spaghetti squash casserole with roasted vegetables, marinara, fresh mozzarella, basil and top it with lemon pesto and some parm. This will be a fly by the seat of my pants recipe, but will be sharing on IG stories as I go.

WEDNESDAY: We are leaning on an all time favorite Ambitious Kitchen: Butternut Squash and Black Bean Enchilada Skillet

THURSDAY: Once a week we do a fend night- this can be leftovers, eggs, smoothies. I just take a night off 😉

FRIDAY: We are going to grill out. I will hit up our favorite fish market and pick up what is fresh. I love the Green Harissa recipe in Fast Food, Good Food by Dr. Andrew Weil. We will top the fish with this and have a side of oven roasted plum tomatoes and sliced avocado. Super easy for Friday night.

A few other things I will be making for us this week: homemade almond milk, lots of fresh juices, chia pudding and smoothies. Very excited about this upcoming week, and hope that you all have a fabulous one!
