I don't know about you, but with my hectic week, Sundays are my catch up day. I always feel so spent by the end of the week that I just want to completely check out and VEG, but spending a few extra hours mapping out recipes, a shopping list, and then food prepping saves you countless calories, unnecessary dollars spent on odds and ends throughout the week, and frustration when you open the fridge on Thursday and think, "What the heck is there to eat?!"
First off, Brett and I use this template to compile our recipes for the week.
Generally, we tend to plan a dinner for each night that requires most of the prep, and for lunches and breakfasts we buy things like produce, eggs, tuna, bread, cheeses, basically things that are individual and grab and go. We visit websites like greatist.com and pinterest.com for most of our meal inspirations! Once we track our recipes on this sheet and list off the ingredients necessary, we update our shopping list using our app Anylist so we can even separate when in the grocery store and individually check things off of the list and it will sync instantly!
This week, we are eating the followings recipes. I wanted to share them with all of you because man, the few we have tried are SPECTACULAR. I would love to have you explore some of these dishes with me and let me know if you find anymore that you enjoy!
Breakfast
Cauliflower and Bacon Breakfast Hash (We used turkey bacon)
Dinner
Chicken Pesto Sandwich (We put ours on Ezekiel Bread)
Eggplant Pizzas
Spinach Sweet Potato Quesadilla
Snacks
Peppermint Mocha Energy Bites
WARNING: We did NOT put crushed candy cane on the energy bites, and still felt tempted to eat them CONSTANTLY! Haha, at least they're healthy right? But if you choose to do the crushed candy cane, just be forewarned that they will be highly addictive! :) ENJOY!
