A new week of options...

*I attached a link with a recipe similar to what I use for each meal...however I have NOT tested all of these.  My shopping list matches my recipes so you may want to double check that you have what you need before heading to the store.  If you have been following my blog you may have several of these ingredients already.  Remember, to make these recipes on the healthier side, use lean meat and buy the low fat/low sodium options of the ingredients.  Happy Eating!

Pulled BBQ Chicken Sandwiches
Tator Tots
Carrots and Celery

*I just throw 1 lb or more of chicken breasts in the crock pot with garlic powder, onion powder, BBQ sauce and a tablespoon of grape jelly.  Let it cook all day and shred the chicken at dinner time for delicious sandwiches.  I serve these on toasted buns with Colby jack cheese.
