Week 3 - Meal Plan

Somehow we're already entering our third week on this challenge.  We learned week one, that going hungry sucks - a lot.  The following week, we learned how to properly feed ourselves - thankfully. And this week, we're hoping to have the best tasting meals yet.


Here's the meal plan:

Breakfast

Banana Blueberry muffins (everyday)
Pretend Porridge (everyday)
Fresh fruit smoothies (everyday)
Eggs (1 egg x 2 days)
Crepes (3 days)

Lunch 

Chicken Salad
Pear + Butternut Squash Soup

Snacks

Almonds
Cashews
Apple
Grapefruit
Clementine

Dinner

Green Zeus Bowl
Asian Pork Tenderloin w/ broccolini & sweet potato
Salmon w/ cauliflower & green beans
Veal Marsala

Our groceries didn't break the bank and although Sunday night was filled with a lot of food prep,  we're finally entering an 'auto-pilot' state on this diet.  With food in the fridge and money in our pockets, we're feeling confident that this week will be our best yet.

Week 2 - Meal Plan

The first few days on Paleo, weren't easy.  Our hunger seemed unstoppable and the tension between us was escalating as we consisted off mostly almonds, almonds, and more almonds. We decided week 2 would be different.  So after a 2 hour stop at the grocery store and $300 later, we felt more prepared than ever to take on our second week as Urban Cavemen. Here's the meal plan:


Breakfast 

Homemade Paleo Pumpkin muffins (everyday)
Almond butter + apple sauce (everyday)
Fresh fruit smoothies (everyday)
Eggs (3 days)
Crepes (3 days)

Lunch 

Chicken salad
Pear + Butternut squash soup

Dinner

Green God Bowl
Cuban salmon w/ rapini
Irish Stew
Tilapia w/ green beans + cauliflower
Pork Tenderloin w/ broccoli
Asian chicken w/ sweet potato mash + cucumber salad

Snacks - almonds, cashews, apples and grapefruits

As we complete this journey, we'll make sure to post all the recipes.  Until then, you'll have to keep following along. Happy Monday :)
