Real Food Meal Plan - Week of January 28, 2018

If you’re just tuning in, this is an ongoing series in which I share our weekly meal plan as I (attempt) to convert us to a Whole/Real Foods lifestyle. I actually meal plan monthly but share it here weekly because it makes more sense to do so.  Meal planning is my way of controlling the grocery budget (read as a LOT of dollars saved), ensuring there is no food waste for the week, as well as saving time.  You can read more about meal planning here.

So I've found a vegetarian meal my husband will eat!!  Yahoo!!!  He LOVES the refried beans made by Amy's.  He has informed me that he would eat enchiladas, burritos, tacos, etc. made with the either the Amy's beans with green chilies or the Amy's black refried beans over those with meat.  These are the baby steps I've been looking for.....
