My Week of Dinners My attempt at starting Whole30 on September 1 was an epic fail, so we’re starting again. Some of you may have seen my confessional photo of bread, cheese, and an Aperol spritz on IG stories. Plan ahead for successful travel on Whole30. If you research Whole30 friendly restaurants, pack airplane snacks,…

Weekly Meal Plan // August 22-27
My Plan for the Week Ahead It’s been a quiet weekend around here. Sunday night I’ll clean out my fridge to prep for the week ahead and take care of at least one thing ahead of time. This “one thing” philosophy is my version of meal prep. I don’t like making whole dinners in advance,…
