Week 1 Meal Plan

Well here it goes! My meal plan for week one of our first Whole30. As I mentioned, there are five of us to feed: My picky husband, my two 9-year old daughters, my 2-year old son, and myself - a sugar addicted, emotional eater. I did my best to have each meal follow the Whole30 Meal Planning Guide when making this meal plan. I don't think I did too well planning the right amount of veggies for breakfast. I will follow-up this post with my shopping guide and cost breakdown as well as a day to day run down of how the meals turned out and the portion sizes that the recipes actually made. I hope that you will find this helpful in your journey. More detailed recipes will be in a follow-up post if they are not linked below.
