I’m sorry this is posting on a Tuesday instead of Monday, but with all the event in Boston yesterday, it felt trivial to post yesterday if not inappropriate.
One full week of No Dairy, No Grains, No Sugar, No Beans, and No Alcohol is done and I am still going strong! I am looking forward to Week 2 and plan on doing a few new things food wise. My family is mainly eating what I am cooking, but both the hubs and my son are still eating grains, and my son is still eating sugary treats now and again.
Like I mentioned in my first Whole30 menu plan, I am not switching my son over to Paleo until I know it’s fully for me. I must say I am very happy to have made it through the first week. I’m already seeing a big change in a lot of different areas. Check out my Whole30 Week 1 Recap if you are interested.
One of the reasons I believe I am still on track is because of my Meal Prep. I make sure I have everything I need on hand to make meals no matter if I am in a rush or if I have time to cook. Also I ditched assigning my days for the meals while doing the Whole30. I decided that it would be easier for me to base my meals on how my days go. That way if the day is rough and I want something quick there is no pressure to cook.
Meal Prep includes:
- Crockpot Chicken Breasts
- Bake Hardboiled Eggs
- Make Large Bowl of Salad base minus wet ingredients
- Roast Mixed Veggies
- Bake Sweet Potato Coins
- Make Sweet Potato Hash
- Make Breakfast Casserole
This Week’s Meals:
Breakfasts: (I have a feeling I may get tired of eggs for breakfast, but for now I’m doing okay!)
- Breakfast Casserole
- Egg Scrambles
- Banana with Almond Butter and Coconut Flakes
- Hardboiled or Fried Eggs add pre-cooked veggies to side
Lunches:
- Stuffed Turkey Roll Ups – Stuffing Ideas:
- Avocado and Cherry Tomatoes
- Kalamata Olives and Carrots
- Guacamole and Salsa
- Salads with Tuna, Chicken, or Hard-boiled Eggs
- Sweet Potato Hash
- Leftovers from dinner
Dinner:
- Bun less Hamburgers with Roasted Brussel Sprouts and Cauliflower
- Cauliflower Rice – Recipe from Nom Nom Paleo
- Slow Cooker Herb Chicken – Recipe from Living Low Carb
- Steaks with Sweet Potato and Asparagus
- Leftovers
Do you have any good Paleo recipes to share with me?

I’m thinking that having the ingredients would make a huge difference in keeping with it! I’ll be so interested to see if you stick with the paleo or not.
We don’t do paleo – so no recipes for me. I admire those that can stick to it, I like my grains too much to give them up 🙂
Looks yummy!
you just reminded me I wanted to hard boil some eggs.
We just discovered baked hard boiled eggs and will never prepare them the old way again!
Looks pretty good 🙂
This design is steller! You definitely know how to keep a
reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost.
..HaHa!) Wonderful job. I really loved what you had to say, and more than
that, how you presented it. Too cool!
Yum! You’ve made such healthy and delicious choices for the week.
Love seeing your meals on your instagram feed. I wanna try this once I pop out the baby. 🙂
This all looks soooooo delicious
I will add you on Instagram xx
Those baked sweet potato coins sound delicious!
I’m craving those sweet potato coins!
I need to try baked hard boiled eggs!
