Menu Monday - Oy.
I've got a horrid head cold, and I can't smell or taste anything. This actually would be a fantastic time to grocery shop, but is a lousy time for me to plan a menu for the upcoming week.
One thing that I've had reaffirmed from Potatoes, Not Prozac is that I need to be journaling my food. And planning ahead, so that I am staying on top of myself. Having to think that hard makes me want to cry. Which tells me I need to eat some protein.
I'm going to attempt to be a little more ambitious than usual, and will be posting a full planned menu, breakfast, lunch and dinner. And then I'm going to stick to it for the whole week. I can do that, right? I'll be shopping this afternoon, so we'll start with Tuesday.
Without further ado - the menu that just might make me crazy.
Tuesday breakfast: One large egg, scrambled with chopped peppers, onions and tomatoes, slice of rye toast.
Tuesday lunch: Bowl of veggie-barley soup, fruit salad with greek yogurt.
Tuesday dinner: Pecan-crusted chicken breasts, brown rice, broccoli
Wednesday breakfast: oatmeal
Wednesday lunch: leftover pecan chicken-salad, open-faced on rye with jicama and avocado salad
Wednesday dinner: baked sweet potatoes topped with chili and a green salad
Thursday breakfast: sweet potato pancakes with canadian bacon
Thursday lunch: stirfry veggies with rice
Thursday dinner:

I was thinking about you the other day. WHile at dh's work party one of the other wives (I'm trying to write that so it doesn't sound like bigomy and it isn't working) was going on and on about how she just started Prozac and how it is the best *ever* and that everyone should go get it. The theme was diner food and all she ate was a milkshake and french fries loaded with ketchup.
SHe did make me want some though...
