We are three weeks into January and the healthy meal planning is still going strong! I have absolutely loved seeing the recipes you all have been making and how much you have been enjoying these meal plans! We are going to close out the month strong with some more of my favorite recipes to get you through the end of the month! Because you all loved the make it once, eat it twice or three times approach last week, I am including several recipes for breakfast lunch that you can do just that! I aim to make your life easier in the kitchen and I hope this meal plan does just that!
Happy Friday friends! Has this been a long week for you? Because it definitely has been for me! Between Parks still waking up in his big boy bed during the night, the hubby working late a few nights this week, and my own work, I have been counting the days until the weekend and a lazy Saturday morning! To me there is nothing better than a weekend morning where you don’t have to rush out the door and can make a special breakfast that can be enjoyed by the whole family! My chocolate chip pancakes with a blood orange chia syrup are going to make your weekend just a little bit sweeter!
We successfully made it through week one of the meal plan and I am starting to feel like myself again! Slowly but surely I am starting to get my groove back in the kitchen and I hope you are too! I absolutely loved getting messages from y’all last week about how you were loving week one of the meal plan and I think you are going to love this week just as much! I am a firm believer in the fact that you don’t have to give up your favorite foods or eat just salads when eating healthy! Instead I believe in eating real foods that are homemade with no yucky ingredients that will leave you feeling satisfied and happy! Sound good to you?
For the first two weeks of January I was having a hard time getting out of holiday mode and back on track with regular everyday life. I talked to so many people who felt the same way this year and finally this week I started feeling like myself again in all aspects of my regular routine. I got back to eating real food, moving my body daily, and most importantly I got my work mojo back! One of the ways I like to stay on track is by starting my day off with a healthy and filling breakfast that gives me energy to power through the day! Oatmeal is a great way to start you day and you can add just about anything you want into a bowl and make it work! My golden milk overnight steel cut oats are a great way to ensure you have a nutritious breakfast any day of the week!
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a lovely holiday and are feeling rejuvenated and ready to tackle 2019! If you are like us, this week means the first week of getting back to reality, back on schedule, and back in the kitchen! I am definitely ready to start getting back to eating meals that are nourishing, keep me energized, and make me feel good and I figured that you are probably ready too! That’s why I will be sharing an easy family-friendly meal plan with you each week for the rest of the month to help you get back on track as a family! These plans will give you ideas for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even a couple of snacks for you to mix and match as you choose or you can follow exactly! I hope my healthy eating meal plan week one gives you some inspiration to get back making yummy food that is not only delicious, but good for you and your family too!
Feel free to adapt these recipe to make them suitable for your family’s dietary needs! Let’s get cooking!

I love taking traditional recipes and turning them into something new. Spring rolls are one of my favorite takeout items, but for some reason I never make them at home! I love that they are light, packed with flavor, and usually packed with veggies too! If you saw my Spicy Garlic Sesame Chicken post, then you already know that I am currently obsessed with my Ecotierra Organic Sesame Oils! They have become one of my favorite oils to keep in my pantry and I have been using them for everything from sautés to dressings! One of my new favorite recipes that I have been making is my Shrimp Spring Roll Salads that has everything that I love about a traditional spring roll, but deconstructed in salad form!
