I do cook and prep 1 - 2 days a week - more like one day and veg prep another morning or afternoon.
I do make meals for myself, dh and for dd older to take for the week when she is downtown in her own place.
-this week: my prep will be vegetarian enchiladas - americas test kitchen
-and curtis stone moroccan kabobs with couscous. i will make one with ground round and one for me with ground chicken.
-I still have enough veggies cut for plain yogurt and taco seasoning. 1 point
-making a Mexican quinoa salad and one brown rice Chinese salad, both for dd older. not my thing.
-I plan on lentil salad for one day for me and dd older. more my thing than hers
-for breakfast: setting up ahead of time whole wheat english muffins 3 points for one (toasted), fried egg or scrambled, 1/2 ounce low fat fiesta cheese, -jalapeño in the eggs, onion too (sautéed), maybe red pepper - but don't think so. wrap and freeze.
-I have to cook cauliflower as I still have way too many florets to eat raw.
-bought broccoli for steaming and adding red pepper flakes too. maybe Chinese type.
-I also will make brown rice for freezer in instant pot.
-I will also use my cucumbers for french cucumber salad
-I have tomatoes that need using so I will roast those with herbs de provence
-using lettuce for sandwiches in place of bread this week.
Next week buy feta
I liked recipe from amanda Cypert of youtube weight watchers - egg jalapeño casserole - simple but also a bit greasy for some reason but very filling for 2 points. they do use cheese.
this week I may make little sandwiches out of egg, english muffins whole wheat, thin cheddar and freeze those. I will see how that works. she has a lot of great recipes.
it is always a joy to be here with you!
