My meal plan for the week - 9/28/20 - Plus A Brand New Fall Free Printable Meal Planner!

 Another week, another week of meals planned. So far, this has helped with the daily stress of what to make plus we have saved between $100-$150 a week on groceries. Not to bad for a little planning!

Do you change your meals based on the seasons? I sure do! I seem to make more soups and crockpot meals in the Fall and Winter seasons. 


This week we are having for dinner:

Monday: Alfredo Chicken w/ Zucchini and Noodles

Tuesday: Meatloaf w/ mashed Potatoes & Broccoli

Wednesday:  Chicken Enchilada Soup

Thursday: Meatball Casserole with Salad & French Bread

Friday:  Kids Pick

Saturday: Hamburgers & Fries 

Sunday: Broccoli Cheese Soup

After making my list, now it's time to see what I need at the store. Some things I stock up on, so I don't always need to buy everything we need. Keeping a good stock of non perishables is so important just in case something happens. I like to be prepared always! 

Here is my grocery list: 

I did a grocery pick up on Saturday this week. The best part about this is that I don't have to get out of the car! I drive up and they bring it out to my car. They confirm with me and then open up the back of my suburban and load it all in there. That's it! 

Once I get home, I just make sure I have everything. I think only once, I was missing something. On the Walmart app, I start a return and they refund me right away. Also, If you don't like the quality of the item, they refund you as well. And if they have to substitute an item, you get charged the amount of the item you pick, unless its cheaper. I do notice that normally if I get a substituted item, the item that they used a better item. That works for me. 

Here is what I ordered this week

After I do a grocery pick up, I normally get a survey on how my grocery pick up way. I am completely honest, as this is the time for them to make their great service even better. Ready to make your own Meal Planner?

Keto Meatloaf - Low Carb and Tastes Yummy!

One Dinner that is constantly in our rotation is Meatloaf. My family has always loved meatloaf - regular or  keto. So I knew that I would have to make it Keto friendly to keep it in our dinner rotation. Most items are the same, just change out breadcrumbs with pork rinds and the Ketchup with sugar free or low sugar ketchup. My family doesn't even know the difference. 

Are you ready to make a great keto dinner?!? Then follow along! I make this large since I am feeding a family of 5 who like to eat! Plus there is some left over for lunch the next day! 

Ingredients 

-3 lbs. Ground Beef
-2 onions
-1 Large Bag of pork rinds
-2 eggs
-2/3 cup tomato paste
-2 tbsp of Italian seasoning
-1/2 tsp garlic powder
-pinch of pepper
-pinch of salt
-Sugar free ketchup

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
2. Let ground beef sit out for a few minutes before starting. Take this time to cut the onions.

3. Once the meat has warmed a bit, place it into the kitchen aid along with the onions. Stir on low and not for long. 

4. Place pork rinds in the blender and blend then up. I normally fit it up, blend it and pour the rest in once there is more room. 

5. Add italian seasonings, eggs, salt and pepper into the kitchen aid. Stir again on low until blended. 


6. Add in pork rinds and blend again just for a little bit. 

7. Add in tomato sauce and blend one last time. Make sure it s fully blended, just make sure not to blend too much. 

8. Grab a 9x12 glass pan and line it with foil. This helps big time with clean up. Spray with Pam. 
9. Pour the meatloaf mixture into the pan and spread it out evenly. I like to pat it into all the corners. 

10. Put it into the oven for an hour. 
11. Sit, wait, watch a show- and after that hour in the oven, take it out and put the sugar free ketchup on the top. I like to drain the excess oil with a baster at this point. 
12. Broil for 3-4 minutes to get that ketchup all gooey and slightly crusty. 
13. Take out and let sit for a few minutes. While you are waiting, drain the rest of the excess oil with the baster again. 


Since my family needs carbs, I make mashed potatoes and broccoli to complete the meal. 

They eat every bite, every time! All of them! Its pretty great when all the kids like a meal. It doesn't happen often, so this is a win in my book!
