Welcome to this week’s vegetarian weekly meal plan. Freeze or refrigerate these meals after your cooking day to serve throughout the week.
Today is Bug’s first day of school. Her little lunchbox is packed and she’s off to preschool. She told me she wouldn’t miss me while at school, she would be happy. And, proud to say, I didn’t cry. She also told me it would be OK, because she would come back after school. Adorable, right?
This week’s plan is gearing up for Fall. Because I’m ready. Even if the weather is not! I’m trying something new this week. Planning out my weekly meal plan to be half refrigerated and half frozen for later in the week. You can save each individual recipe to your box, via ZipList and add those to your grocery list. Or, you can wait until next week when I’ve posted all my results and versions of the recipes!

Yum! Awesome meal plan. I need to have my kiddos pick out a couple of your things to have in the freezer when we cook up lunches and breakfasts for school this month. So yummy! Thanks for sharing, sweetie!
Thanks Ang! I think you'll love those pumpkin granola bars (and they're GF/DF already! bonus!)
