Meal Plan for February 24 through March 9


This is what it looks like on the only bare wall in our kitchen :-).  We have been doing this for months now, and it works well.  I start planning on paper, then move it to this to have it up on the wall.  We have a calendar with what's going on and our meals on it, a place for important fliers/info, and my little Toms flag :-) (just because).  On the left is a list of breakfasts and lunches to choose from.  I also write what we're out of on there (under "needs").  These needs will be all we buy for the next month!

The bottom is the rest of the different types of food.  They're on magnetic "paper."  The magnets are for recipes; though, I've been keeping the recipes in a binder lately (binder is for another blog post).

I made a meal plan for two weeks, but I have enough food for two more weeks.  I'm being realistic and know that if I plan that far out, something will come up!

So, here's the plan for the next two weeks:

Breakfasts
  • Sprouted grain toast, fried egg, fruit
  • Green smoothies
  • Egg sandwich
  • Steel cut oatmeal
  • Protein boxes (boiled egg, cinnamon raisin bread, apples, peanut butter, cheese)
  • Buckwheat waffles
Lunches
  • Sandwich, fruit, hummus chips
  • Protein boxes
  • Leftovers
  • Tuna salad
  • Chicken salad
  • Wraps
