It’s been awhile since I posted a Menu Plan, sorry. With my pregnancy being further along I’m focusing more on prepping for a baby and getting the nursery ready. I’ve still come up with a menu most weeks (but usually not until Tuesdays).
Menu Plan
Monday: Homemade Bread Bowls with Broccoli Cheddar Soup (I’m made it once, but I’m trying out the recipe again. I’ll post the bread bowl recipe later.)
I’ve been telling you that since beginning this 2nd trimester I’ve been a LOT hungrier, especially in the mornings. I’ve been eating 2 breakfasts because I just get really hungry so fast after my serving of Homemade Granola and yogurt in the mornings. Last week I started teaching again and I needed a breakfast that would be quick and would keep me full longer. I came up with a recipe that I’m going to try most mornings to make. It’s so easy, and eggs are a pregnancy power food.
I know I didn’t post our menu plan last week – sorry! I’m going to try and be better about it now that I’m through my first trimester and I have practically my full amount of energy!
Have you ever tried out ziplist? (I explain what it is in this post.) I use it to plan out my menu, make my grocery list, and when the time comes, click on the link to cook the meal. It helps me to be organized and makes things go so smoothly!!
Those of you who have been with Romance on a dime for awhile know that I’m pretty dedicated to my blog and regularly host Take it on Tuesday every week. Since I’ve been pregnant, I have been a lot more tired, and a lot less motivated to DIY/blog. Weird. My 2nd trimester is just beginning, so I’m hoping that with the coming of January I can get back to my normal self!!
Sorry, I didn’t get to commenting on your projects last week, but I did do some pinning and selected some to feature:
I know I didn’t post our menu plan last week – sorry! Our favorite meal was the Taco Pizza my husband envisioned: Refried Beans as the sauce, cheddar and mozzarella cheese, ground hamburger with taco seasoning, black olives, tomatoes (which we added to the pizza when we were halfway through cooking it), and shredded lettuce (added after taking out of oven). So good!!
Menu Plan
Quick Chicken Parmesan from Eating Well
Monday: Costco hotdogs (we are shopping at Costco and just grabbing dinner there – $1.50 for a meal each!)
Now that I’ve officially announced that I’m pregnant, I’m probably going to be using that excuses for many things. Especially since I’m in the first trimester still, it’s VERY hard to menu plan when you are nauseated and many meals you look at don’t sound appealing. It’s been hard to menu plan.
So I planned on posting about the Sourdough stuffing, but I think I’ll show you just a few pictures I took. This is what cooking for Thanksgiving looks like when you are pregnant – semi-messy table and cutting everything sitting down (with a pillow propped behind [...]
Hi! So glad to see you here. I'm a soon-to-be mom, wife and a work-at-home piano teacher and tutor. I know I'm weird, but I love to menu plan, organize, set goals, DIY and enjoy life with my amazing husband - Matt Pool!
