I thought I would start sharing my menu plans for the week. For dinner, if it's not so calorie safe, I just have a small portion and either lots more of the veggie side, or add a big 'ol salad. If in doubt, add a salad! Breakfast is Shakeology, I usually just mix in 1 cup vanilla almond milk, 1 cup water, 1 tbs instant espresso, 1 tbs greek yogurt and 1 scoop Shakeology in my shaker cup. If I feel like using the blender I do 1 cup water, 1 cup vanilla almond milk, 1 banana, 1 tbs instant espresso and 1 tbs Better 'n Peanut Butter. If I could get my hands on some PB2, I would use that instead!
