Simply Sunday, June 2nd

Happy Sunday friends!  I hope everyone is having a blessed day.  Just wanted to ask one question today, what are you doing to set yourself up for success this week?

For myself, I will be cutting my vegetables and cleaning my fruit to make sure I have a good week.  Those little steps help to set us up for success throughout the week.  Even little things like browning meat ahead of time, makes it easier to put together meals.  I'll be taking some time to roast some veggies as well.  Those quinoa bowls I was talking about a week or so ago are definitely on my list this week.  It may be a lunch or it may be a dinner or both.

I think I forgot to post my June starting weight yesterday.  My starting weight for June is 178.2.  Is it the smallest I have been?  No, it's not, but it's where I am and it's where I hope not to stay long.  

Wishing each of you a successful week!

  1. I made some pork chops in the crockpot yesterday to have leftovers to pack for my lunches this week. Unfortunately, it was a new recipe, and my crockpot must cook faster than normal, because the pork chops are pretty dry. I still packed some for my lunch today, but I am not nearly as excited about trying something new for lunch, knowing they are like shoe leather :)

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe.  I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years.  My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods.  So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie.  It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese.  I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years.  You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much.  I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!   You can watch the video here:  YouTube

Meal Plan (with a little prep and planning) Monday, May 5, 2025

Happy Monday, friends!  I hope you are looking forward to a good week!  It's time again to share my meal plan for the week.  I suspect breakfasts will be fend for ourselves.  Last week, I think we all ate a lot of cereal.  Lunches this week will likely be chicken pasta meal with salad and meat pies.  I am honestly exhausted after last week.

Monday: Homemade Hamburger Helper Cheeseburger Mac Tuesday: Barbacoa tacos Wednesday: Mississippi Chicken, mashed potatoes and a vegetable Thursday: Spaghetti with salad and garlic knots Friday: Easy Chicken Parmesan Saturdays and Sundays, we normally have breakfast in and do carryout for lunch or dinner.  Exercise wise, I will continue with my plan from last week, which was to do two workouts using my pedals, at least 10 minutes each) on Monday-Wednesday-Friday.  I did this las...
