Another week ahead of us! This week I decided to take inspiration from the plan I semi-followed the past few days. I’ve been obsessed with my pumpkin pancakes, and a small spark of inspiration had me whipping up my Italian bruschetta recipe for lunches. I enjoyed it with a big side of greens, and it was delightful. Here’s what we’re cooking this week. Don’t like a recipe you see? You can always switch it out with something else! And as always, if you want regular updates, my newsletter signup is right here.
Alright, let’s get to meal planning.
