I have been posting about my weekly menu planning on my facebook page for the past month or so, and it's been so helpful in keeping my family on track! We have food sensitivities between the four of us including gluten intolerance, dairy intolerance and corn allergies, so eating out is not always a relief. Sometimes, it's a roll of the dice and we may pay for our indiscretion for days after. We have figured out a few places locally, where we can enjoy our meal without issue, but now we are trying to save those for once per week at most. Eating at home is a better plan for the budget too.
Here is my plan for this week:
Gingered Carrots with Mahi Mahi from Everyday Paleo

Chicken Fried Cauliflower "Rice"
Mediterranean Chicken with Spinach and Cherry Tomatoes
Bunless Burgers (it's been on the menu since last week but never made it to the table)
Chili or Soup from the freezer (we still have a lot to go through!)
Leftover pot roast and chicken from last week
We still have a few leftover meals in the fridge today from last week, so we are working our way through that and I don't want to make too many meals this week so I'm giving myself a break. That's one of the great benefits of being a month into this meal planning, I am still benefiting from meals that we made weeks ago thanks to the freezer!
What's on your menu this week? I challenge you to make a plan for your meals. I don't choose which day we will have them on a calendar because sometimes our plans change, but I go into my week with a plan so I have a better chance of success in making good food choices. Share your menu in the comments!
