October 25

Well, we made it through week one of The Whole 30 Challenge.  I have successfully gone one week without any sugar or sugar substitutes, dairy, grains, or legumes.  I really can’t believe it.  I had a rough Friday and Saturday.  All I wanted was someting I couldn’t have.  I didn’t even know what, I just wanted everything.  Sunday was better and today I feel back to normal.  Let’s hope it lasts!!! 

I hope you all enjoyed last weeks menu.  There were some definite keepers in there for us, like the Sweet Potato Hash and Paleo Chili.   I am actually going to make another batch of chili this week.  It was such a tasty and easy leftover lunch.  I might even individually portion it into the freezer.  We love leftovers for lunch.  Than and I both feel more fulfilled with a hot lunch especially on these cold rainy days. 

We are trying to incorporate many different meats into our week.  You will find chicken, turkey, pork and beef.  Again, another way to keep boredom at bay.  Don’t let lack of variety beat you.

Without further ado, here is this week’s menu…
