Meal Planning Tuesday... because life

April 10, 2018

This week is insanely easy and definitely leftover oriented.


Monday - Wednesday - Euna Mae's Cream Cheese Enchiladas

Thursday - Friday - Sesame Noodles with Mongolian Beef

Saturday - Sunday - Chicken Bacon Ranch Skillet with Roasted Potatoes

Like I said, super easy week. I'm starting to feel like I can tolerate food being cooked in the house and the enchiladas were a hit for me last night.

For breakfast I'm having Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins. Lunch is just a bagged chopped salad and some yogurt. Trying to veer towards healthy again, I can't stand the idea of another 60 lb weight gain pregnancy.

The muffins are super easy:

2.5 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup plain greek yogurt
2 bananas
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
vanilla
1/2 cup honey (I used 1/4 yesterday)
2 eggs
2 tbsp flax meal

Blend the oats in a food processor until a powder. Add in other ingredients until smooth. Toss in whatever additional items you'd like, I used dark chocolate chips. Scoop into a 12 muffin tin and bake at 350 for 20 minutes. 

Also if anyone has suggestions I want to hear them. I've been having trouble drinking enough, really bad indigestion this time. More than a few sips of water makes me feel sick. I'm thinking of making sugar free jello as a way to get more water in.

Also. Also. (otherwise known as P.S.S.) I'm starting baby aspirin soon to try and prevent having hypertension again this pregnancy... has anyone done this and had success? Tips and tricks are more than welcome. This mama has zero desire to swell up like a whale again from water edema.
