Menu Plan ~ March 3-9

I actually sat down on a Sunday and menu planned again!  I went shopping on Friday, so I'm trying to include meals that use what I bought.  Makes it more difficult this way and I wish I had thought my purchases through a bit more.  It wasn't a 'full' shopping trip, just a stop at Trader Joe's where we don't always get to. So I just picked up what I knew I needed and some stuff of what I wanted.  Shopping that way doesn't do well for the budget!

I'm working on planning out our breakfasts & lunches - so many days they are on a whim and we snack because there is no lunch.  With just 3 of us, it is easy to make enough of a meal to have leftovers for at least 2 if not all 3 of us.  Sometimes I have to make a point of putting the 'leftovers' aside before we start our meal so they don't get eaten! What we need to eat and what we want to eat don't always match up.  It's a great way to take care of portion control when the seconds are already in the fridge!

*I've added in some of the changes that I'll have on my mostly grain-free with minimal gluten-free carb diet that I'm currently following.  If I haven't made note, assume that I'll be leaving off the bread/grains in the meal for myself.
