Menu Plan Monday – Vegetarian Family at Grandma’s House Edition
Our (Kristi’s) family had a bit of a family emergency this month, so the kids and I packed up to visit Grandma. This sent our menu plans into a bit of a tizzy since my mom isn’t quite as far along the Get Real spectrum as we are at our house. I’ll admit I get a little mopey every time I speak to my husband over Skype…and not just because I miss him, but also because I can see my beautiful stand mixer and food processor in the background. But, we’re making it work by keeping our meals simple and not stressing (too much) about whole food slip-ups. It took me a little longer than usual to get the meal plan together this week since I had to coordinate with more meat-eaters, but we got it done (a bit late in the day, but it’s still Monday, right?).
