Weekly Meal Plan: Week 36 2016

Two more days of summer vacation in our house. We are picking up the last round of school uniforms, labeling everything, making lunch plans and eating ice cream as we wrap up a fabulous summer season. For our friends going back to school today, nothing says back-to-school with a heat warning in Toronto this afternoon!

We have arrived at our one year anniversary living in Canada. Our family decided to celebrate with a BBQ this weekend, AND clean out the storage rooms that hadn’t been touched since we moved in. I found more stacks of recipe swipes in my desk, dishes I no longer need, and a stuffed animal missing since Christmas. It was a great reminder for all of us to clear out the excess so we can find the things we love a lot faster. If you need a little help cleaning up, you can read this post, listen to this podcast, or grab this book.

On to this week’s meal plan!

Dinner {GF= Gluten Free, P=Paleo, DF=Dairy Free}

Monday: (delayed due to summer fun)

Tuesday: Grilled Salmon with White Bean and Arugula salad and peaches and cream local corn. 20 minute dinner recipe! GF, DF. (Grill basket suggestion for fish.)

Wednesday: Chicken Cutlets with Tomato Saute, GF, P, DF. There are so many local cherry tomatoes at the market and this recipe is an easy way to highlight them. Quinoa on the side is already cooked and stored in the freezer in family size portions.

Thursday: Paleo Short Ribs, carrots and spinach. (Birthday dinner!)

Friday: C.O.R.N. = Clean Out Refrigerator Night.

Weekend: BBQ with friends and Beef Chili with No Crust Apple Pie to celebrate the return of Sunday football games.
