Monday:
Peppered steak, quinoa and green beans. Wheat Belly doesn't actually agree to using quinoa because it has carbs, but it is an OK level of carbs and eating it with steak will lower the GI impact on the meal anyway.
Tuesday: Almond crusted chicken, carrot rice and salad. Again Whet Belly doesn't encourage rice, but its going to be
basamati rice which has the lower of GI of the rices out there, so I'm good with that.
Wednesday: Meatloaf , mashed potatoes and salad. I don't know what Wheat Belly thinks of potatoes yet; haven't finished
the book yet, but what is meatloaf without mashed potatoes.
Thursday: Thai Chicken Curry Soup with salad on the side. Sounds yummy to me, not sure what the kids will think but gotta keep expanding their horizons. If you notice salad a lot, I like to make a big batch and then I have for a couple of meals and only chop veggies once. Dressing is always on the side at each meal.
Friday: Taco Pie and veggie sticks. The taco pie will use the Wheat Belly version of tortillas. Sound good too and kids
do like tacos.
The weekend usually is for eating up leftovers and/or what ever comes to mind. I like to plan the weekday meals as the weekdays are most busy and that is when I benefit the most from planning. I think this should be a good week for supper. The meals look more than reasonable. Now if I tried a bean week, I'd have a mutiny on my hands I'm sure.
Who else does menuplanning? Do you plan weekly, bi-weekly or whatever? I find if I do this it helps me out a lot because I don't have to ask "what's for supper" every day.
