It's Monday again already! The weekend went too fast. I stuck to last weeks menu except for one night, and I still cooked, just made flat pizza again instead of chicken black bean corn salad. So I am hoping this menu keeps me on track again this week.

Monday - black lentils with some veggies and grilled chicken. I am thinking red and green peppers, onion, and diced tomatoes. And maybe wrap it in a tortilla.

Tuesday - we are going out to dinner to celebrate my brother in laws birthday so no cooking.

Wednesday - flat out pizza with green pepper, tomato, and spinach.

Thursday - I am going to the theater with my sister and Bond has plans to go a happy hour event downtown so probably just a sandwich or something else really quick.

Friday - I have book club but may make a frozen pizza before hand to split with Bond.

Happy Monday. I haven't done a menu Monday in a few weeks, mostly because we have had so many weeknight plans we haven't been cooking at home! This week is back to normal.... Only one week night event.

Monday - flat out pizzas. Have you seen these at the market? They are high in protein Jane fiber and low calorie. They make fantastic thin crust inidividual pizzas! I will be using red Italian sauce, mozzarella cheese, and diced red peppers for toppings.

Tuesday - whole wheat pasta with chicken sausage, a staple in our house. I will also throw in some quartered artichokes.

Wednesday - chicken, corn, black bean, tomato salad with whole wheat tortillas to make it into a wrap too!

Thursday - we have an Oklahoma Blood Institute event from 6-8, we will meat some appetizers there and then either pick up subway on the way home or make sandwiches at home. This will depend on my energy level!

Friday - something easy! Probably frozen pizza or leftovers.

What is in your meal plan this week?

Tuesday - I have a late meeting and tickets to a musical at the civic center, so I will pack a sandwich and some fruit to eat on the go.

Wednesday - something easy and light, maybe finishing off any leftovers, or even scrambled egg whites with veggies, toast, and fruit. I love breakfast for dinner!

Monday - spaghetti with chicken, spinach, asiago sausage and quartered artichokes. I have a meeting tonight and this is a fast easy option.

Tuesday - we have a clergy appreciation dinner at church so no cooking!
