Healthy Weekly Meal Plan 9.10.16! A healthy weekly meal plan featuring Beef and Barley Stew, a Caprese Quinoa Salad, Green Goddess Quinoa Bowls and more!
Happy Saturday you guys! As you are reading this, I am probably up in the air somewhere flying back home. Living in Madison is great and flying in and out of the airport is also great, because our airport is so small (maybe 15 gates max?). I love flying out of Madison because everything is so efficient and you’re usually not waiting too long for anything. The only downer is there are a lot of connections in Chicago and Minneapolis (read: not as many direct flights). So, today, I will be making 2 connections . . I have to wake up at 3am, be ready to head to the airport by 4:30am PST and will be home by like 4pm central time.
Needless to say, it’s going to be a very long day. I can’t wait to tell you guys about my trip! That will happen in a few weeks. . so until then, let’s get ready for the new week ahead of us with this great meal plan. Make one recipe, make them all, it’s up to you! I hope you can find some meal plan inspiration here. And obviously, all of you live all over the country (and some, in different countries). We’re in a weird in between state with the weather. Some parts of the country are still in warm summer mode and some are ready for soups, stews and chili. Hope one of these suggested recipes work out for you, wherever you are!
Have a great weekend, you guys!

You are so good at traveling! It would drive me a little nuts, especially with all the connections. I’m not an airplane kind of girl.
I need to try that fig pizza pronto!
