Food.

I am an A Type.  This is something I struggle with on the daily.  It keeps me very organized but also makes me go ape sh*t when things get off kilter.  One thing I do - every month - is make out a whole meal plan for the entire month.

Each week I have three meals planned and shopped for.  I try to make double what we need so we can have left over night and still have options.

Trim Healthy Mama Stew of Love - You're going to read Trim Healthy Mama quite a bit.  Sorry not sorry.

Trim Healthy Mama Cream of spinach & Chicken Soup - If you are like me you try to balance your meals so that they are not always chicken.  It can be a struggle.

Trader Joe's Orange Chicken - This will probably be the first thing I make in the air fryer.

Meatloaf - A family favorite and perfect for Sunday dinner.  One thing I love is making dinner on Sundays and we all sit down and eat together.  Trust me - that doesn't happen a lot.  I will fix potatoes and green beans to go along with this and a dessert.

Trim Healthy Mama Queso Chicken Bake - Because I get bored with Taco Tuesday...

Trim Healthy Mama Chili Pie - I feel like sometimes I make too much chili in the cooler months this is a good switch up.

Cajun Shrimp Dinner - From Skinny Taste - another air fryer meal to try out.

Stouffers Lasagna - Because on Monday I like it ready to go into the oven without me doing anything.

Chicken Tacos - Chicken will cook all day in the crock pot and then we'll dish it on the tortillas - easy peasy....because sometimes I do not get tired of the ease of taco Tuesday LOL!

Trim Healthy Mama Creamed Spinach & Bacon Smothered Chicken - No words necessary.

Trim Healthy Mama Greek Chicken - Rando fact about me Greek food is my favorite food.

Salmon Patties - get ready air fryer you're up!  

The moral of the story is...I eat a lot of homemade food from recipes in the Trim Healthy Mama cookbook.  I'm glad I could have this right in front of my face.

Now for the good stuff....

This my go to for Thanksgiving meals and fall potlucks.  

Oh and this no bake keto pecan cheesecake makes me go yaaasssss too.

Now lets talk about the turkey of the month - Thanksgiving.  At the current moment I am working on Thanksgiving. But in previous years and for about ten years we had a family tradition of going to the moutains and having the traditional lunch then going to get a Christmas tree.  Then we had to alter that a little and opt for a trip to Cracker Barrel and Walmart.  (Long story.)  This year there is nothing more I want than to go back up to the mountains - eat til we're fat and miserable and then go get a tree.  (Our fake tree's prelitness is not very litness anymore.  That's me being a middle schooler in my jargon.)

This post from Justdestinymag.com is exactly what I'm dreaming of.

And to be honest - I can find myself in a Cracker Barrel on any given Thursday throughout the year eating turkey, dressing, green beans, and potatoes...just saying.

Ok now that we are all hungry....
