Menu Plan Monday


I really worked on planning low-fat/fat-free meals for this week. I can't figure out how to link to my SparkPeople menu plan page, but the menus are mostly from my Fix It and Forget It Lightly book.
Monday:
Breakfast - Overnight Apple Oatmeal p.267
Snack - Apple
Lunch - Salad with endame
Snack - Chai Tea Latte
Dinner - Orange Chicken p. 14
Tuesday:
Breakfast - Oatmeal
Lunch - Black Bean and Corn Soup p. 187
Dinner - I'll be going to a dinner at my synagogue. I'll leave frozen raviolis for the babysitter to make for the kids.
Wednesday:
Lunch - Salad with leftover chicken
Dinner - Eggplant Italian p.223
Thursday:
Lunch - Leftover Eggplant Italian
Dinner - Fruited Flank Steak p. 48
Friday:
Lunch - Salad with leftover flank steak
Dinner - Shabbat dinner at my parents' house
Saturday:
Dinner - Vegetable Lasagna
Sunday:
Dinner - Dinner at my in-laws' house
I'm usually a cereal addict, so I'm going to be working on higher protein breakfasts to see if they satisfy me.

Go Rachel! I hope the MPM is a good start to achieving your other goals too. As it's past midnight right now I'm obviously not doing as well as I'd hoped in the "sleeping more" category myself but it sounds like you are on the right track.
Check out www.weightcommander.com too. I am overwhelmed by SparkPeople but hope to catch up with them sooner or later.
Love the action plan. Hope to see you sometime soon to compare notes!

COOL!! I'm going to check out those sites!! I am always strugging w/meal planning. I seem to do a good job for a few weeks and fall off the wagon. I know it sounds lame, but I hate grocery shopping (& getting gas) so I spend a lot of time trying to fill my kitchen w/'pantry staples'.
