wait....
what horse?
By this point it is eleven o' clock at night and I have neither the time nor the energy to ride horses. So I shall leave it to another day.
In this scenario the horse represents being organized, the friend is Lilac Barries, and the coffee is coffee. We are in the process of (trying to) selling our house and in the midst of projects, and decluttering I've forgotten my meal planning and list making. It's been kind of disastrous. Well that's where you come in Blogland*. I'm going to start putting my vegetarian meal plans on the web for the world to see. I'm hoping this will keep me accountable to start actually making weekly meal plans again. I also truly hope this will inspire others to make their own meal plans. Or supposing you are just starting out down the vegetarian road, I hope this helps you to get an idea of what I eat on a weekly basis (hint...it's rarely salad!)
If you have your own vegetarian meal plan up at your blog feel free to leave a link in the comment section. If I have time I'll start putting links in the actual blog itself. I'd love for people to be able to come to this site and look over lots of ideas for a typical week in the life of a vegetarian or vegan. If you don't have a blog you could also leave your meal plan in the comments section, or maybe just one or two ideas you have for the week. I'm excited about this....so let's get started!
Monday
Chickpeas and veggies in a spicy tomato and onion gravy served with rice and pitas
Tuesday
Fajitas in the crock pot? I don't know how this one will work out, but I've got a class that night so I need a crock pot recipe to keep me from going loco.
Wednesday
Beans, apple wasabi slaw, and rice
Thursday
Leftovers...yay
Friday
Froggie face pita pizzas (if these work I'll post pictures) and pumpkin rice balls
Saturday
Soup, pumpkin pull apart rolls, and roasted potatoes
Sunday
Chili and cornbread casserole
Other vegetarian meal plans:
*Yes we are still in the midst of one of my delusions......errr...scenarios, in it I am the Empress of Blogland and I get to wear a pretty pretty dress.
Yay! I'm seriously getting stuck, I was lame and decided I wouldn't do any duplicates this month-because no meat for the whole month isn't hard enough. So now I get ideas! You can do it! love you!

Sadie, I am more of a meal guidelines kind of gal. My kids have found great amusement in the fact that I assign meal catagories to days of the week. Here's what I do.
ReplyDeleteMonday: Italian
Tuesday: Mexican
Wednesday: Soups,Salads and Sandwiches
Thursday: Asian
Friday: Pizza
Saturday: Burgers/Grilled Anything
Sundays: Everyone is on his or her own
This allows me a lot of flexibility when shopping to get what is on sale, while still having some idea of what I'm going to do with it.
I do have a set of file cards (haven't put them on my computer yet)with menu ideas for each food category.
Denise, we do Mexican food on Tuesdays as well. I really like the idea of having a category for each day. That's something I'll have to work on.
ReplyDeleteMrs. Lilac, I've added your link. :)
