Family Meal Plan Ideas

Happy Friday Lovelies.  Today, I want to build off my previous post Food Prep Tips.  It’s easy to prep the food and eat snacks, but what do you do with all these cut up fruits and vegetables for the week?  There are a ton of options and this is a simple list.  My Family Meal Plan Ideas are all vegetarian but, you can easily add in chicken and ground turkey to most of the lunch and dinner ideas.  These are meals that we eat weekly using our items we prepped for the week.  It is a very general list and I will be sharing the recipes over the next few months.  Make sure you check back often for all the yummy meals for you family.
