Healthy Dinner Recipes for the week of January 16th-20th
Ok, so this is my first week doing this for skinny mom – but menu planning is a practice that I have done, with varying degrees of intensity, from the day I first lived on my own. The convenience (only one grocery trip per week with a feisty one year old – yes please!), money saving, and health benefits are overwhelming.
I also need to say I am NOT a nutritionist – I pick recipes based on their general healthiness, ease to prepare (remember that one year old thing?) and our personal tastes. I know you may not love all of these recipes, but I do try to mix things up. One trend you’ll see, my husband Billy and I looooove Mexican cuisine. Like, LOVE it.
If you have any favorite recipes, takes on the ones I provide, or questions please don’t hesitate! I find recipes everywhere, the internet, books, magazines, my best friend’s great grandma’s sister’s cousin…. If you have a good one, share!
Here’s week one (click on the menu item for the recipe): To make it easier to print out all of the recipes, Skinny Mom has compiled all of them into one file. Click here and print!
