Paleo Meal Plan for this Week!

Sundays are generally dedicated to weight loss etc.. well last week I lost a BIG NOTHING!  In fact Im pretty sure that I gained a few somehow?

This morning I got up early to start 30 day shred and 5 mins in Cloee woke up throwing up, jax woke up ready to eat and Benjamin woke up cranky crank crank! Maybe during naps I can get it in!

This week we are getting serious about going Paleo! All of us! 

This morning I cleaned out the cabinets and fridge and got rid of all the stuff that isn’t approved!  Our intention is to go full paleo with the exception of eating Greek Yogurt, goats cheese and stevia along with a few other random things here and there.  We aren’t gonna be nazi about it but for the most part very strict.

We are attempting to have the kids eat the same thing as us except for lunch!

Here is our weeks meal plan along with some recipes and some links to some great recipes!  Hope you enjoy!  

MONDAY

Breakfast – Spinach Mushroom & Goats Cheese Crust less Quiche

Super simple! Whip 10 eggs add in spinach mushrooms and goats cheese.  Put in pie pan and bake at 350* for 20(ish) mins It usually takes around 20 mins but I just insert knife till it comes out clean J

Lunch – Turkey & Avacado Lettuce Wraps & Fruit

I get unprocessed fresh smoked turkey breast and have it shaved in the deli, slice up avocado and wrap in lettuce (usually romaine) add some tomato and some homemade ranch made with greek yogurt and hidden valley dressing packet

Kids Lunch – Paleo Chicken Nuggets,  honey roasted carrots & Fruit

                Nuggets are from Paleo Mom –

                The carrots are here (you have to scroll half way down page to find them)

Dice and lightly brown the chicken in skillet (I like to cook the chicken in Italian dressing for a yummy flavor)  We do mushrooms, squash, zucchini, onions and peppers – put on sticks and grill! Yum

WEDNESDAY

Lunch – Steak, Oven Fried Okra & Cauliflower Poppers

My secret to the most amazing steak ever is that we marinade it for 2 entire days in Jack Daniels Marinade packets and then turn every 3 mins on grill! OMG so amazing!

Kids Lunch – Same as us except Chicken instead of steak J  They aren’t quite ready for steak yet

Dinner – Turkey Bacon, Tomato, Avacado & Onion Lettuce wraps with Butter Nut Squash Fries

Butternut Squash is my new fav potato subsuituite! For the fries we peal the outside and slice like fries and toss in a little bit of olive oil and seasonings and bake at 350 for 20 mins! Super Yummy

Thursday – Sunday breakfast on the go is really necessary so here are some of the things I am going to premake and have ready to take on the go!

We also make Egg Muffins that are great to go!  Just mix eggs and whatever you want and put in muffin cups and bake at 350 for 20ish mins – We do spinach and goats cheese, mushroom, onion & peppers.. So many endless combination possibilities! 

THURSDAY

Lunch – Turkey Avocado Wraps & Carrots (same wrap recipe as pizza crust above)

Kids Lunch – Same

Dinner – Hawaiian Luau Chicken & Veggies & Cauliflower Rice

I marinade and cook my chicken in McCormicks Hawaiian Luau Merinade and in a separate pan cook veggies (usually squash, zucchini, Peppers & Onions) in the marinade as well.  Once chicken is done I dice and drain all the excess marinade and mix all together and serve.

FRIDAY

Lunch – Leftovers from night before

Dinner – Spaghetti Squash

I cut squash in half, brush on a little olive oil and seasonings and bake upside down in a dish for 1 hour at 350

Once squash is done I pull apart with fork and mix all together! Super yummy!
