Happy Monday, friends!

Another week ahead of us. It’s Valentine’s Day this week. That means you can eat all the chocolate you want, right?  I have a batch of brownies on our counter for my boys. Mama knows the way to their hearts.  I finally cleaned out my car yesterday after I did meal prep and I’m so HAPPY.  Now I just need to wait for it to stop raining to clean the outside but there’s so much pollen around here right now, what’s the point?

Speaking of meal prep…

Meal Prep this week:

• meatballs (a riff on these turkey meatballs)
• pita chips
• carrot coconut soup
• cooked chicken breast
• hard boiled eggs
• chopped vegetables + washed lettuce
• zucchini noodles – for this recipe!
• Persian frittata
• gluten-free brownies
• chopped up a bunch of garlic ahead of time in my mini food processor
• corn muffins (from a mix!)

I think we might have some baked spaghetti and Thai basil beef in our week too.
