21DSD Day 5 - Recap

Well folks, I didn't exactly follow my meal plan, partially because lunch was provided during the training I took, partially because I wasn't in the mood for the things I made, or because I just wasn't hungry at times.

So here’s what I actually ate this week:

	Breakfast	Lunch	Dinner	Snacks
Monday	Chicken Spinach and Artichoke Frittata	Garden Vegetable Soup with Greek Salad, Hard-boiled Egg	Dijon Mustard Chicken with Roasted Brussels sprouts	Carrots, Celery, Pistachios
Tuesday	Chicken Spinach and Artichoke Frittata	Salad with Pan-Fried Chicken, Salmon, and Steamed Broccoli	Paleo Chili with Mashed Parsnips and Roasted Broccoli	Carrots, Celery, Almonds, Coconut Flakes, Pistachios
Wednesday	Paleo Chili, Hard-boiled Egg	Pork Loin and Chicken with Mixed Greens	Dinner Out: Italian Chicken	Carrots, Celery, Almonds, Pistachios, Hard-boiled Egg
Thursday	Chicken Spinach and Artichoke Frittata	Beef and chicken with Mixed Greens and Steamed Broccoli	Dinner Out: Ahi Tuna Sashimi	Carrots, Celery, Almonds, Pistachios
Friday	Hard-boiled Egg	Paleo Chili with salad	Chicken Spinach and Artichoke Frittata, Hard-boiled Egg, Carrots	Carrots, Celery, Pistachios, Hard-boiled Egg
Saturday	Chicken Spinach and Artichoke Frittata	Garden Vegetable Soup and Cucumber	Garden Vegetable Soup	Carrots, Celery, Almonds, Walnuts, Pumpkin Seeds, Pumpkin Cookies

I've frozen probably half of the Garden Vegetable Soup, Paleo Chili, and Mashed Parsnips. That means I don't have to cook next week. Sweet!

That's Just Beachy

My parents and I are going to St. George Island for the next week. I leave today to drive to New Orleans and stay the night with my preschool buddy CA and his girlfriend. Tomorrow I'm going to Pensacola for a night, and then on Sunday I make the last segment of my journey to St. George Island.

Unless things have changed since I last went to St. George Island in 2009, there's only one small grocery store on the island, which means we have to bring food if we don't plan on eating out for every meal. I don't want to cart around food on what sums up to a 13-hour drive, so I plan on stopping in Panama City to go to a Publix or Sam's Club to pick up whatever I need. In order to figure out what I need to bring separate from my parents, I came up with a meal plan for the week.
