First things first, remember my post HERE about the Tracy Anderson DVD? Well, congrats to Sydney Nau! Please submit a form in the 'contact' tab with your address :) Thank you everyone for entering- your support means so much to me! You guys are the best. Seriously. Okay, onto today's post... I've had a few questions on what we usually eat for dinners during the week, so I thought I would do a little post about whats on my menu (sorry if this is mega boring!). I'll post the recipes too, just so you can follow along if you want :) Before Skylor and I got married, I barely cooked. My idea of eating at home was making a box of hamburger helper (yikes). Skylor's mom, Julie, cooked a ton & he grew up loving and relying on homemade meals. When we got married, I decided that I wanted to cook most, if not all, nights of the week. I thought by practicing so much, I would up my cooking skillzzz and also so Sky could have homemade stuff. When I am on a stricter diet, I don't cook as much/I make simpler stuff, but our normal meals usually come from like the billions of cookbooks I have. I love Cooking Light, Betty Crocker, and Better Homes and Gardens- I try to pick healthy, nutritious foods that are decent in the calorie dept. I make the weekends a little bit more special by just making something fun and delicious (sometimes it's healthy, sometimes not). Onto the good stuff... here's a sample work-week menu: Monday: Pork Tenderloin Tuesday: Beef and Black Bean Enchiladas (I use ground turkey instead though) Wednesday: Italian and Chicken Lentil Soup Thursday: Easy Chicken Pot Pie Friday: Beef and Barley Stew Pork Tenderloin (pictured) Recipe from: Cooking Light Good Mood Food
