Menu Plan 5/16/11 and a Shopping List

Whew!  Back in town and getting organized for the week... Maybe things will be a little slower this week???  For dinner tonight, we had breakfast casserole (w/ spinach, no cheese) and I made some little pumpkin custard cupcakes things (not completely paleo with all the honey) using this pumpkin pie filling recipe.

I don't have a full menu planned, but here's what is down so far:

Breakfasts:

Banana Almond Pancakes

Coconut Milk Smoothies

Eggs and Fruit

Lunches:

BLT Salad with Chicken

Carrot-Apple Salad with Chicken

Waldorf Salad with Chicken

Dinners:

Monday - Pizza Chili (with leftover meat sauce from last week)

Tuesday - Taco Salad (might get adventurous and make some homemade salsa!)

Wednesday - Leftovers

Thursday - (unrolled) Cabbage Rolls (I have a bunch of frozen shredded cabbage.)

Friday - Leftovers

Weekend - TBD after an end-of-the-week shopping trip

A couple non-paleo things I am going to make this week:

Feta Dip (for a pot-luck party)

Chocolate Cupcakes (from a mix on sale, for my husband to take to work)

I ran to Price Chopper tonight to get some strawberries so we'd have some fruit for tomorrow.  Also got some bacon on sale, some green onion, and some dried sage.  Spent $8.

I hope to get to Aldi early this week.  Here's my list, since I will likely be a slacker on the photos:

salad mix (sale) - 4

grape tomatoes (sale) - 4

mushrooms (sale) - 2

bell peppers (sale) - 2 pkgs.

red onions

olives

avocados or guacamole

feta cheese

bread or pitas for dip

apples

carrots - 2 lbs.

celery

bananas - 2 pkgs.

eggs - 2 dozen

ground turkey - 2 lbs.

nuts

raisins

cinnamon

diced tomatoes - 2

tomato sauce - 2

tomato paste

large ziplock baggies

diapers

Should be about $55.
