Well, since my Battle the Bulge challenge is now in full swing, I’m trying to plan a menu that I can eat (or eat in moderation) and not blow my calories (and WW points) out the window!! You’ll notice it doesn’t LOOK like a “fat free,” “carb free” or well, “ANYTHING free” kind of diet. Well, it’s not. Though I do make changes during the cooking process that help and I limit the portions of some things and I moderate everything. In some cases (like with the hot dogs) – I may not be eating what everyone else is eating. But most of the time…? I am.
- Monday: Buttermilk Pancakes, Turkey Bacon, Orange Wedges; Hot dogs, Chips, Carrots, Ranch; Low-Cal granola bars; Spaghetti (didn’t get to this last week), Bread, Salad
- Tuesday: Cereal & Fruit; Sandwiches, Chips; Fruit and yogurt; Homemade pizza and salad
- Wednesday: Scrambled eggs, turkey bacon, homemade biscuits; supposed to be at dentist appointments and a friend’s house the rest of the day – we’ll see if everyone is well by then.
- Thursday: Oatmeal & fruit; Grilled Chicken Salads; Apple slices and peanut butter; Tacos
- Friday: Cereal & Orange Wedges; Nacho Supremes; Veggies & Ranch; eat out before the show
- Saturday: Buttermilk biscuits, turkey bacon, gravy; Soup & Salad; Fruit Cocktail; eat out before the show
- Sunday: Bagels; lunch at church; veggies & ranch; Breakfast for Supper
I make a lot of these myself from scratch. If you’re interested in a recipe – lemme know!
Menu Plan Monday is hosted by Laura at I’m an Organizing Junkie!
Sounds like a GREAT menu!
I’m going to make pancakes again this week too! The extras came in handy yesterday when Daddy was in charge of lunch and just couldn’t find anything to make… 😉 Hope you’re all feeling better soon!
