Menu Plan Monday

My menu plan (week in review):

  • Monday: Italian Sandwich (whole wheat hamburger buns, 1/4 extra-lean ground beef patties with oregeno, garlic, salt, and crushed red pepper mixed in, lowfat mozzarella cheese, and marinara sauce) approximately 300 calories
  • Tuesday: Chicken Salad Sandwiches (this recipe was healthy, but it wasn't that tasty) less than 200 calories
  • Wednesday: Chicken Soft Tacos (whole wheat tortillas, ground chicken breast with salt-free southwest chipotle seasoning, fat-free sour cream, cheddar cheese, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, green onions, red taco sauce) approsimately 325 calories (and so yummy!)
  • Thursday: Meatball Sandwiches (whole wheat hotdog buns, extra lean ground beef meatballs, mozzarella sauce, low-sodium marinara sauce) approximately 400 calories
  • Friday: Baked Lemon Pepper Salmon (boneless skinless wild salmon fillets, seasoned with salt-free lemon pepper, and juice from a fresh lemon squeezed over it) approximately 200 calories
  • Saturday: Grilled Chicken and Veggie Kabobs & Texas Caviar (recipe and pictures will be posted later this week for the GCC Recipe Swap)
  • Sunday: BLT Burgers (extra-lean ground beef patties on whole wheat bun, turkey bacon, spinah leaves, tomato slices, touch of lowfat mayo) approximately 300 calories

fun menu! Looks like you are taking advantage of the nice weather for some outdoor cooking?

It also sounds like this is your menu from last week? I think it makes sense to post it this way, allows you to include the recipes and what worked and what did not work. I have posted my plan two weeks now, and have not bee surprised when the plan has changed!
