Weekly Menu - what's on yours?

Since BP asked, here's our Low Carb menu for this week:

Mu Shu Chicken (lettuce)Wraps

Deep Dish "pizza"

Soy Ginger Steak

Chicken Cordon Bleu "breaded" in ranch

Pesto Chicken

Buffalo Chicken Salad

- I'm making a bigger batch of chicken salad and egg salad for lunches. I'll eat those plain or in a lettuce wrap. Wednesday I'll have an Angus Burger from McD's without the bun, and breakfast is always a slimfast low carb shake.

    No - we just "googled" it and used what we found.  We got a Beer Can Chicken stand as a wedding present but completely forgot about it until LittleBug posted about it last week.  It was very good - and super easy!

    No - we just "googled" it and used what we found.  We got a Beer Can Chicken stand as a wedding present but completely forgot about it until LittleBug posted about it last week.  We used a spice rub that I got from Penzey's.  I heard from a friend yesterday a good trick is to add cinnamon to the beer.  It was very good - and super easy!

  • Tonight I'm trying low carb spinach lasagna, but that is really all I have planned.  I'm hoping to try the deep dish pizza Mrs.Reem posted, and we'll probably end up grilling burgers and chicken sometime.

  • MrsReem-are all the recipes on your blog?

    We are having:

    Grilled Chicken Bruschetta (skinnytaste.com)

    Hamburgers (no bun for me) with sweet corn-if I can find some good stuff. I've been craving it!

    Grilled Zucchini Pizza 

    Grilled Shrimp & Veggie Skewers

    That's all I've got so far...

  • Yep they're in my blog.

    I'm hoping I lose enough weight to start splurging by the time our corn in the garden is ready to pick. Otherwise I am going to be one sad momma. 

    Brownies and corn. Those are what I'm craving.  lol!  

     Also - I found some dark cocoa covered almonds at Target. Very low carb count and they're perfect for my chocolate cravings. Also almond clusters right near them on the shelf are good.

  • I just found this site on craigslist I'm pretty pumped about it, I emailed the place and they lady was really fast getting back to me, all very clean/healthy meals, and for a meal plan/grocery list for only $2! I'm totally game! And you can use the code "free week" to try it out!
