I haven't quite figured out Saturday and Sunday yet. I think I do need to stay on the plan but might be more spontaneous and not plan out Saturday and Sundays when doing my meal planning. This would be a good chance to use up the weekly leftovers and then get ready for the week and go grocery shopping. The more I think about it the more I like that idea! Done!

Stay tuned for how these recipes turn out and what adjustments I make.
