Well, I am a bit late as to posting my menu plan for this week, but I had to get it together, so why not share it with you all. My little kidney bean (the size of my baby at 8 weeks) is still causing me to feel very nauseous when thinking about food, so I am trying my best to keep our menu’s simple and still somewhat nutritious.
Tuesday
Prep: soak beans for baked beans
Breakfast: Hard boiled eggs, Almond Rhubarb Coffeecake (used whole wheat, increase baking soda by 1 tsp, used rapadura for sweetener, skipped topping – worked wonderfully!)
Lunch: Peanut Butter & Jelly, applesauce
Dinner: Chicken Caesar Wraps
Wednesday
Prep: make baked beans, marinate veggies for dinner
Breakfast: Oatmeal, raisins, coconut flakes, almonds
Lunch: Leftovers
Dinner: Grilled Veggie Sandwiches
Thursday

P.S. I will be sharing a little bit about our weekend events tomorrow, as for now…nighty nights!
I don’t know if you have ever made that veggie sandwich before, but I adore it! I crave it so often that I make it almost once a week! In fact- that’s what we are having tonight with Annie’s Fruit Salsa, also from allrecipes. So good!
I love your weekly menu! It gives me great ideas, and I am thinking that I definitely have to try the granola. Do you think that milk kefir allowed to go a bit longer and therefore be a bit thicker could be substituted for the yogurt? Then again, I could just make yogurt!
We are almost 34 weeks pregnant, and with the added treat of Southern California heat food and I are still not buddies, so we are eating very simply! Good thing we will soon have tomatoes from the garden!
Thank you so much for posting your menu!
Opps…I linked to the original granola recipe. I updated it to link to my granola version which is greatly improved upon the original, and yes, I also use kefir which works wonderfully!
Such a great menu (as always, inspiring us to eat better!) Please check out my blog, I’ve given you an award! Please don’t feel any pressure to participate, I just wanted you to know!
Hi Lindsay! You mentioned an almond rhubarb coffee cake. Would you be able to share that recipe with us? It sounds wonderful. I’m always looking for yummy ways to use up my rhubarb.
I added the link above to the recipe I based it upon with my healthy alterations. It is delicious!
