Happy Sunday everyone! As this post goes live, I should be out running half marathon #7. I’m hoping my tummy is feeling great afterwards. I really could use a nice celebratory dinner. I’m leaning towards something Mexican just because margarita’s always sound good after a sweaty race! Gotta replenish the salt I lost. haha!
Last week was a difficult time in sticking with our meal plan. The kids have decided to become really picky lately. If it doesn’t involve pasta or a nut butter, it gets picked at or not even touched. Dinner is the worst. I try to offer at least one thing I know they’ll eat. If they don’t want to try anything else, then tough. That’s it. I refuse to be a short order cook. Needless to say, our dinners haven’t been a relaxing event in quite some time.
Here’s how the menu is shaping up for this week:
Sunday: Dinner out/take out if my tummy agrees. 
Monday:Veggie Omelets
Tuesday: Spaghetti Squash Pad Thai – I bought a spaghetti squash last week with intending to make this. Moving it to this week instead.
Wednesday: Crock Pot Sweet Potato Lentil Soup – one of my favs!
Thursday: Leftovers
Friday: Avocado and White Bean Wraps
Saturday: Clean out the fridge meal or Pasta with homemade spinach pesto
What are you having for dinner this week?
I planned on the Spaghetti squash pad thai last week too, but topped it with a thrown together minestrone instead… I still want to try the pad thai recipe sometime.
I’m so excited for you out there running right now! Hope your stomach holds up. I can’t wait to hear about it!

MMM your crockpot sweet potato soup sounds incredible! I was looking for a simple crock pot soup this week, I’m going to give yours a try! I haven’t planned my meal week yet, but you’ve inspired me to do so! Thanks!!

Hope your marathon went well! I’ve only made “Italian” style dishes with spaghetti squash but this Pad Thai looks so good I might have to try it!

First of all I hope your half went well! You had good weather for it:-) I have to try that sweet potato/lentil crockpot soup! I’ve been loving everything spaghetti squash lately! I made a great chicken fried “rice” with spaghetti squash instead of rice last week, it was so yummy!
