Weekly Meal Planning: Blogcation Over!
We may earn money or products from the companies mentioned in this post.
Vacation officially ended yesterday. As it turns out, it was also an unintended blogcation. After the first day, we weren’t able to get internet access, so I decided to let blogging go for the week. It was nice to take a little break, but I missed writing! However, it’s hard to be too upset about missing internet when you have a view like this right outside your back door….
We had a great week at the beach, but that came with eating a lot of foods we don’t normally eat. Unfortunately, we also have evening plans which involve eating out 3 nights this coming week. That being said, I’ve been careful to select some meals this week that will help to get us back on track.
Dinners:
Grilled Chicken & Veggie Bowl
Arugula, Tuna, and White Bean Salad
Italian Bean Balls & Spaghetti Squash
We may end up with time for a fourth meal, but that will be on Saturday, so I’m going to hold off on planning for that right now. In terms of our other food, we’re pretty good with breakfast, so we’ll stick with our regular breakfast of egg, turkey bacon, and grapefruit this week. I know I have to eat out for lunch at least one day this week, but I’m finally going to make that batch of split pea soup I keep talking about, and, if I can find the time. I’m also hoping to find time to whip up some sweet potato hummus as a snack for the week. I’m working on cutting back on my dairy, so that should be a good substitute for my Greek yogurt.
That is one gorgeous view!
Having that kind of view just a few steps from the back door is one of the huge advantages of staying oceanfront!
Beautiful! I often have plans to keep up with blogging as well, but vacation breaks are so nice. Glad you had some time to unplug!

Hope you had a nice vacation, that view is stunning!
I have a sweet potato hummus recipe that I make almost weekly! I would love to be at the beach right now (or anytime)!
Is the recipe on your blog? I would love to check it out! Right now I just use a sweet potato, a can of chickpeas, lemon juice, garlic, and just a touch of both tahini and olive oil.
