Healthy Weekly Meal Plan 11.5.16! A healthy weekly meal plan featuring Roasted Butternut Squash Pizza, One Pot Sweet Potato Kale Quinoa Skillet, Pesto Gnocchi, Maple Balsamic Chicken with Brussels Sprouts and more!
Happy Saturday, you guys! It’s been a very rough week, emotionally but I’m going to focus on some exciting news. Today I am hosting my daughter’s Daisy troop here at the house (our first meeting, ever) and am excited to kick off a new year with them!
After that, this weekend will be filled with baking, cooking and more baking! I will be partnering with Go Bold With Butter and will be hosting Facebook live videos the week of 11/14 on their Facebook page. And I’ll be cooking up all the things for Thanksgiving! Stay tuned for details!
I can’t seem to get enough butternut squash these days .. I’m loving it roasted and in salads and we should all be eating as much sweet potato and butternut squash as possible so take a look at the meal plan below and I hope you guys try something! Hint: the butternut squash pizza down below is not to be missed! So good!
I’ll be back on Monday with something special. . if I can get through writing this blog post, it’ll be dedicated to my friend Rina.
Have a great weekend, everyone . . and if you haven’t already, be sure you get out to VOTE on Tuesday, 11/8! God help us all.
Monday
Roasted Butternut Squash Pizza from me! You guys, this is fall inspired and the best pizza ever! Butternut squash, chard, mushrooms, fontina cheese and spicy sausage! So good!
Note for cook: One small sized butternut squash should yield about 2 cups of roasted butternut squash to be used for the pizza. It’s important not to load on too many toppings onto your pizza so it cooks evenly. This will yield a more crispy and better tasting pizza.
Tuesday
One Pot Sweet Potato Kale Quinoa Skillet from Lauren Kelly Nutrition.
Prep Tip: This will be ready in under 30 minutes!
Wednesday
Pesto Gnocchi with Sausage Asparagus and Mushrooms from Flavor the Moments.
Prep Tips: Since asparagus is out of season, feel free to sub with broccoli or peas! Pesto may be made in advance.
Thursday
One Pan Maple Balsamic Chicken with Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash from greens & chocolate.
Friday
Roasted Pears with Cranberries Walnuts and Blue Cheese from Spoonful of Flavor.
