The Chows Kitchen - Quick and Easy Menu Planning #1
/Welcome to the Chows Kitchen! As a person who would rather hold a paint brush than a ladle, I try to plan healthy(ish) and easy meals to get us through the week. Menu Planning has been the biggest lifesaver for our family. Not only does it make the cooking process less dreadful, but it saves us $$$ and keeps us eating healthier.
Depending on the recipe, I will adapt to my fit dietary needs with Crohn's. It took me time to realize I don't have to follow the recipe exactly. If I make any changes, I will let you know. Here is what we are having this week!
Sunday
Tilapia with Rice (Taste of Home)
Monday
Bacon, Egg & Avocado Sandwiches (Taste of Home)
We have made these so many times...so easy and so good! Pork is something I cannot have so we substitute that with turkey bacon. It fills us up a la carte, but it would pair nicely with a salad.
Tuesday
Pizza, Wings & Caesar Salad
Sprouts has a perfect take & bake pizza, and it's healthy because it's from Sprouts, right? ;) We love these Foster Farms Wings because the buffalo sauce comes on the side! Costco is the best place to get them, but we've also seen them at target. Sprouts also has the best caesar salad kit...our girls love it!
Wednesday
Taco Salad (Taste of Home)
There are so many variations you can do with this. I cannot have red meat so we use ground turkey instead. This isn't a meal the girls like so they get quesadillas.
Thursday
Bruschetta Chicken Pasta (Yellow Bliss Home)
Friday
Fridays are our eat out days.
It is also our dessert day. After endless asking from Berkley if we could have dessert on any given night, we decided to make Fridays that night and now she never asks :)
Saturday
Leftovers!
Easy menu planning for the win! I hope this helps and makes dinners a little more easy for you. If you try something, let me know!
Thank you for being here. Mean it!
