People seem to be liking these meal plans so I will keep posting them. I am in the process of learning how to give my blog a makeover, hence the lack of posts. I have this complex about the appearance of my blog. I know it's weird, but I feel like if it doesn't look professional, people won't take it seriously. Hopefully by the spring I will be up and running on a spiffy new site. Stay tuned!
Until then, here is my dutiful weekly meal plan. Sorry if you are getting sick of them. I do them not only to give others ideas, but also to keep myself accountable. If I already told the world that I was going to make a homemade soup on Saturday, I would feel a little bad if I backed out and got take out instead. See what I mean? Accountability. :)

Meal Plan Monday #9
Here's my real food meal plan for the week.
As usual it's all real food, no processed ingredients, but not diet food. These meals are NOT low fat, low calorie, low carb, or low anything else. We've been there done that and it wasn't sustainable for our family.
We do strive though to use high quality ingredients as to best nourish our family, so all meat is pasture raised, eggs are organic and free range when I can get them, produce mostly organic when budget allows, raw grass fed milk, whole grains, homemade stocks, etc.
I've kind of fallen into a groove of 1-2 beef/pork dishes, 1-2 chicken/poultry dishes, 1 seafood dish, 1-2 vegetarian, and pizza night. It's what works for us. Enjoy!
I'd LOVE to hear from you in the comments! Do you meal plan? What are some of your favorite dishes?
