Meal Planning Monday April 8, 2013

Hello all!!  It is finally starting to feel like Spring and I am so happy!  I can't wait to plant my garden and herbs and start making delicious fresh foods.  I am trying to pay a lot more attention to where my food comes from and growing it myself seems the safest.  Now to solve the dilemma of finding safe meat and poultry without going broke!  That being said, I am really excited about this week's Kid Friendly Korner recipe: gluten free chicken tenders from Perdue!  Will let you all know what Little A thinks of them :)

Here is this week's meal plan:

Monday: Bruschetta Garlic Shrimp Pasta (5P+) This one was inspired by a recipe I saw on Mommy Hates Cooking.  You should really check out her site, she is amazing!

Tuesday: Ginger Soy Salmon (5P+) with broccoli and brown rice

Wednesday: Apple Cinnamon Pork Chops (5-6 P+ depending on chop size)

Thursday: Burgers on the grill with corn tortilla "buns" (6 P+)

Friday: Pizza

Saturday: Leftovers

Sunday: Crock Pot Balsamic Chicken with Pears and Portabella Mushrooms (4P+)

Breakfast: Garden Veggie Egg White Omelet (2P+)

Lunch: Spinach and Kale Salad with raspberries, blackberries, oranges, almonds and tuna (5 p+)

Dessert: Fudgy Zucchini Brownies Grain Free (I am using crunchy nut butter for texture)

Kid Friendly Korner: Perdue Simply Smart Gluten Free Chicken Tenders

Happy Eating! :)
