I have big plans for next week, and I'm posting it here for anyone who wants to follow along. The reason I'm posting this today is because I use the weekend to go grocery shopping for whatever I need to buy for my meals next week. So if you'd like to follow along on my meal plans, write a list of what groceries you need and plan on some shopping today or tomorrow!
I just started scribbling my ideas down on paper, and this is what I came up with:
The left sheet is my meal plan, the right is my grocery list.
On the right side of my meal plan I also scribbled ideas and goals. Like how next week I want to make homemade honey wheat bread and homemade salsa with fresh tomatoes. I have a "grow my own cilantro" goal, and if you notice I also mapped out my workout schedule for the week.
You can find all of the following recipes in my "Recipes" tab at the top of this page. {I got my recipes from: allrecipes.com, budgetbytes.blogspot.com, and self.com.}

**Note: along with my grocery list, I placed an order at Bountiful Baskets for all my fresh fruits and veggies. If you're interested in this go to bountifulbaskets.com, they have pick ups every other saturday. This is my first time trying it, I'm excited!
If you'd like to do this with me, feel free! Or you can make up your own meal plans and substitute whatever you like. I don't have an exact calorie count on all of these meals, that's something I will work on for next week.
I hope you all have a happy, healthy week!!
