Weekly Meal Planner: February 19th

My goal for groceries is to stick between $60-$75 per week moving forward. This week is going to be a bit higher than that because of the double grocery shopping on Saturday for one of my favorite meals ever, but for the most part, I'm going to work really hard to stick to a budget.

This week, I'm lazy and am just going to go to Whole Foods. I know there are better deals out there (Trader Joe's, this means you!) but I just don't have the time or patience tonight to go multiple places.

Here's the plan!

Breakfasts:

• Yogurt: Either Siggi's or Fage 2% (or Classic) depending on what's on sale
• Bacon + Eggs: Sunday special, obviously! I think I eat too much bacon, so I'm trying to pare it down.

Lunches:

• Leftovers, every day. You can tell that I need to make 4 meals this week because they're the bold colors. Leftovers of that meal are in the same color scheme but lighter. 
• I'm terrible with leftovers so will end up having to stock my freezer, but good for you if you only have to make 2 or so meals/week. I wish I could!

Dinners:

• Shrimp and Avocado Salad
• Chili
• Cucumber Salad
• Rouladen and Red Cabbage

Snacks:

Mid-Morning (at work):

• Veggies + Hummus: not strictly (at all) paleo, but I won't make paleo-friendly hummus because it just, frankly, takes too much effort and I'll forget to eat it.
• Olives: Likely Kalamata
• Nuts: JUST A FEW. I think too many make me feel sortof funky.

Evening (in class):

• LunchBot full of goodies: cherry tomatoes, cheese, hard-boiled egg slices, and fruit, plus a Lara Bar. 
• LaraBars are high in sugar as they contain dates, so I only eat them sparingly and when I know I won't be having a big dinner...i.e. when I have class :(
