Hi, friends! Happy Sunday!
I did all of my meal planning like I normally do for my shopping this week, but then I forgot my grocery list at home. Doh! I wasn’t about to drive home to get it, so I did my best to remember the meals (and their ingredients) I had planned for the week. I actually remembered just about everything (yay!), but I ended up shopping off my list quite a bit. I bought some apple cider and mulling spices (along other things), which, of course, isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but I definitely didn’t stick to our budget this week and went over about $20. Oops! I guess that list was kind of important. Lesson learned!
Here’s this week’s meal plan and shopping list:
- Sunday: Sushi
- Monday: Mustard-Glazed Chicken with Candied Carrots (both recipes from Practical Paleo)
- Tuesday: Taco salads
- Wednesday: Potato & Chicken Salad with bacon and Brussels sprouts

- Friday: Shrimp Stir Fry
- Saturday: Out to dinner

When I got home from the grocery store, Mal offered to help me carry the groceries into the house, but I told him I could I do it on my own.
Please tell me I’m not the only person who gets excited about carrying all of the groceries in the house on one trip!
