That all looks sooo good! I have a love/hate relationship with meal planning, but it is always worth it!
yum! i’m liking the sounds of that black pepper tuna
Ohhh the pasta dish sounds yummy! Everything sounds yummy! You have a great week of meals planned!
Looks great! Question: Do you cook for 2 or do you cook larger meals and then use the leftovers? I know you do eat a lot of leftovers, but I wasn’t sure if you always cook for more or shoot to have just enough for 2. I hope that question makes sense. #newwifelearninghowtocookfor2
A lot of recipes that we make are 4 (or more) servings, so we’ll eat 2 (or 3) servings and save the rest for leftovers.
Some day I will plan my meals. Looks like you have a delish line-up ahead of you! Yum!

Looks delicious and nutritious! Great recipes!
I definitely need to get on the meal planning bandwagon! My kitchen has been pretty pathetic too, lately, and I need to load up and get cooking!
The tuna dish sounds good. I am loving trying new dishes for my weeknight meals!
Mmmm I just checked the recipe for the ham cauliflower gratin and it sounds crazy delish! Haha, the past few days have been really basic throw together anything you can find meals.
I’m happy to report that my husband has become really flexible throughout our 4 months together! Sounds like Mal is a trooper as well. 
What’s an example of what you ate when you trying to lose weight?
Pretty much what I eat now, but a lot more “fake” low-calorie foods. I definitely eat better nowadays!
That coconut chicken sounds so good! I’ve made salmon with a similar recipe and it was delicious!
Mama Pea cracks me up!
