I took the last week off of meal planning to spend some extra time with family, but I am excited to be back at it this week…especially since it’s New Years Eve and so many of us are ready to kick the holiday eating to the curb and make a fresh start!
This week’s menu has some of my favorites, as well as a new recipe from my awesome friend Stephanie from The Foodie and The Fix. She is one of the talented bloggers that I have teamed up with for our new 21 Day Fix Facebook Support Group! There is a lot of great energy in the group already and I am so excited for the extra support and motivation! Join us if you haven’t already!
Anyway, these recipes are fairly budget friendly (because I may have given all my money to Amazon Prime) and easy to make as we all try to get back into our routines and kick start our healthy habits! Like always, I’ve included the grocery list under each recipe – hope this helps you get organized!
Also, if you are looking for a private challenge group, my new one is starting this week, as well. Comment or message me if you want more information.
Happy New Year, friends!
