Healthy Weekly Meal Plan 04.09.2016

Raise your hand if you’re ready for summer!

Rain’s in the forecast this weekend. But no bother, we’ll take all the precip we can get, and I can use the an excuse to do some project-ing around the ol’ casa and catch up on some podcasts and light reading. Because I’m fascinated by the gut-mind connection, I just started reading The Good Gut, and up next is Brain Maker. What are you doing? Is it summer where you’re at?

THIS WEEK’S EATS! Lots of numtastic nummy numness <- don’t slap me. We’re starting the week with a fresh and vibrant quinoa salad, moving on to chicken skewers, celebrating hump day with a chicken and chickpea mango salad with a super spunky dressing, followed by a frittata from yours truly, then ending the week with a fiesta of steak tacos! Enjoy!
