MEAL PLAN THIS WEEK – 5/2

Apr 24, 2022menus + recipes

With how busy our calendar is getting and all the running around to kids activities, my nutrition GOALS for everyone is to make sure we’re getting PROTEIN, HEALTHY FAT, + FIBER with every(ish) meal so we keep our energy up, stay full longer, and keep our blood sugar as balanced as possible. We will probably fail more than we succeed, but I feel like it’s easier to make decisions at the store and with snacks when I have specific intentions. Anywho, here’s our meal plan for the week!

  • MONDAY | Asparagus and Avocado Potato Salad with Poached Egg and Salmon (easily sub salmon for other protein and the white potatoes for red or fingerling… make it your own!)
  • TUESDAY | Slow Cooker Thai Basil Chicken Curry (For a busy baseball, basketball, soccer, and gymnastics kind of night!)
  • WEDNESDAY | Pizza Night & a big Salad
  • THURSDAY | Ranchos Huevos
  • FRIDAY | Food Truck Night (or will swap with Saturday menu)
  • SATURDAY | White Bean Turkey Chili (or will swap with friday food truck night)
  • SUNDAY | Lazy Girl Lasagna
  • BREAKKIE | Egg Bites (going to try and make ahead later today!), Smoothies, Yogurt + Granola + Fruit, Avocado Toast
  • LUNCH | Turkey Sandwiches, Leftovers, PB+J
  • SNACK | Meat + Cheese Plates, Apples + Peanut Butter, Popcorn
  • HAPPY HOUR | Tito’s, Soda Water, + a squeeze of Lime… Just as refreshing without the Tito’s.

What recipes or snacks have you been serving a lot of lately!?\

xo, Rae

Just a reminder to play the long game 🖤 parent Just a reminder to play the long game 🖤 parent their hearts, enjoy their company, encourage their dreams, be a soft place to fail, and grow along side them. Parenthood is messy and incredibly challenging, but easily the most important and deeply rewarding thing I will ever do 🖤 Feeling thankful (for it alllll) and a little sentimental after a weekend with Ozzie (and a couple friends) home. Nothing better.
BETTER THAN TAKEOUT CHICKEN PAD THAI 🍜🤍 made BETTER THAN TAKEOUT CHICKEN PAD THAI 🍜🤍 made with healthy ingredients, lots of love, and good mems in the kitchen. (RECIPE BELOW OR USE LINK IN BIO)

YOU’LL NEED:
avocado oil, as needed for cooking
1-1/2 pounds chicken breast or tenders, thinly sliced (like you would for stir fry or fajitas)
1 package dried pad thai rice noodles, cooked to package directions
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 onion, sliced
2 eggs, gently whisked
1 cup bean sprouts (plus more for topping)
1/2 cup firm tofu, cut into bite sized pieces (optional IMO)
1/4 cup garlic chives, cut to inch size pieces
1/4 cup peanuts, roughly chopped (plus more for topping)
2 limes, cut into wedges for serving
ground chilli or cayenne pepper, to taste (for those that want extra stars – optional)
1/2 cup pad thai sauce* (see note)
HERE’S HOW:
Prep toppings, as desired, setting aside bean sprouts, peanuts, and lime wedges.
Heat avocado oil over medium-high heat and sauté onions and garlic for a few minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add chicken. Cook most of the way through. Move chicken mixture to one side of pan and pour egg into the other. Scramble before mixing everything together (like you would for fried rice). Cover and let sit while you prepare noodles.
Prepare noodles according to package directions. In a large pot, add noodles and avocado oil (to taste) and stir fry for a few minutes. Add bean sprouts, chicken mixture, tofu (if using), and sauce. Toss together until sauce is distributed evenly. Add chives and peanuts and toss gently.
Serve immediately with toppings of choice!
How do we feel about midi denim skirts as a winter How do we feel about midi denim skirts as a winter to spring (and pretty much year round) staple?! 👖👗🤍 it’s a yes for me! 

They seem to be popping up everywhere so I rounded up a bunch for you, as well as outfit sources at link in bio or here: https://raeannkelly.com/ootd-the-denim-skirt-you-can-wear-all-year-long/
Mondays are for stocking the pantry! And since our Mondays are for stocking the pantry! And since our bins and labels needed a refresh, I thought I’d share the process 😋 We organized our pantry about a year and a half ago (with the help of @finding.order ) and have never looked back! I was nervous about my ability to stay on top of things but have found that it makes grocery shopping and cooking so much easier because you can actually see what you have and what needs to be restocked. Anywho, I’ll link to sources in my bio and stories for anyone interested in details 🖤 let me know if you have any questions!
