Baby it's hot!!!🌞🌞🌞 I'm loving this nicer weather though. I've been awake since 4am, but sunshine makes me feel energized. I made a very light meal plan for this week, because it's too hot to cook and/or eat heavy food. Here's what we're eating.
Monday : Baked BBQ chicken breast wraps, potato salad, carrot/pineapple salad
Tuesday : Frikkadel, baked potato, carrot/pineapple salad
Wednesday : Same as Monday
Thursday : Same as Tuesday
Friday : Taco boats with side salad
Saturday : Red Robin (DS)
Breakfasts : Bran apple muffins, blueberry pancakes, eggs or omelets, toast, chocolate brioche or raisin bread french toast, cereal
Lunch : Leftovers or protein from freezer with salad
Dessert : I'm not making dessert until we finish whatever sweets are in the freezer (pumpkin pie & chocolate cookies). We didn't eat any pumpkin pie last week, so we'll have it this week.
I'll have my chicken with salad while DS has a wrap. I don't need the extra carbs.
Arby's has chicken sandwiches on special - 2/$6. So I got that on Friday and boy did I regret it. That 'chicken' was so loaded with sodium, I was bloated & felt sick afterwards. I've never eaten much salt. I have a sweet tooth. Give me cake, cookies, chocolate or ice cream any day of the week. But with salt, I use the bare minimum. So back to our favorite Friday Mexican dinners. We know exactly what goes into our food this way & DS loves it. I cooked the taco meat yesterday, so I just need to make the avocado bean salad on Friday. Easy peasy.
Have a wonderful evening peeps!
Menu looks very good. Being able to eat more than one meal is a big plus, especially when it is hot. I should actually have baked some desserts today, but just didn't want to. If it is still raining tomorrow I will so so.

Your meals all sound so good. I've been craving potato salad and need to make some this weekend. I don't like to eat out at a number of places because of the sodium either. I cook with very little pink sea salt and I can tell immediately if a food is high in sodium. I hope you've been having a good week!!
ReplyDeleteI got a free burger coming up for my May birthday from Red Robin, so it looks like we will be eating there too.
ReplyDeleteLike you, sugar is my draw. I am not so much in love with salt.
ReplyDeleteAre you doing okay? I really miss your posts.
