Oh man you guys!! Last week was a 1/2 success, and a 1/2 fail. I did some things great.
- I made getting back on track a priority.
- I got the hubs on board with being better about our food.
- I planned ahead.
- Broc-Cauli Chowder with Bacon
OMG that was SO good!! I blended it in my blendtec on the soup setting and it ended up SO creamy my husband was convinced I added cream to it. That will FOR SURE me making an appearance on our menu plans again soon! I love my Practical Paleo cookbook!
However, life as it so often does got super chaotic and we found ourselves short on time. I didn’t meal prep very well last week so when life threw a curve ball I didn’t have much to step in to catch it with. I never got to do the Turkey Legs or even the Beef Stir Fry from last week’s menu plan. (It’s likely the turkey legs will be on next week’s menu plan.) I also never got over to the local butcher shop in our neighborhood or into Whole Foods for bones to try bone broth. Lesson’s learned? I need to meal prep a LOT better and have some stuff in the freezer for easy Paleo dinners…
This week I am keeping it SUPER simple. We have a few extra things going on, and I have some deadlines to meet, so I call this menu plan the “I’m Short On Time!” menu plan.
I’ve got 12 eggs ready to be hard boiled. I’m going to roast a bunch of veggies at once to have on hand for breakfast hash, quick lunches/dinners, and I’ve got 5 pre-made smoothies ready to blend in my freezer!
Speaking of short on time… I’m super excited because my hubs ordered me T25 for Mother’s Day. I can make time for 25 minutes!!
Here is to an awesome week!! 7 days, 7 winning days!!

Oh goodness, that Broc-Cauli Chowder with Bacon looks absolutely delicious! I could really dig into that.
I need a blendtec. Love your menu plan. Seriously I need to get organized and have a real menu plan for summer so that we eat better when everyone is home.
The Blendtec sounds like a great tool for the kitchen! I really need to work on coming up with menu plans to make life easier.
That’s an easy menu that will come in handy! Plus anything with bacon is good.
Thanks for the weekly meals, I’ve been wanting to try this but didn’t know where to start. Much appreciated!!
