Food Is A Drug #Paleo

Just a quick pop in to share our meal plan for this crazy week. Due to surgery I won't be able to post much here but hope to post on Instagram: chrismisspaleo and Facebook: Food is a Drug #Paleo. Here's the plan for the week: I prepped these things over the past week and froze them for when Mr. has had a long day or he is traveling for business. I made this yesterday for a late, late lunch.  It was delicious.  I highly recommend! Emeal's Recipe is here:   Chicken Thighs and Mushrooms with Cauli Rice and Lemon Zucchini I'll take all your prayers for surgery but most importantly RECOVERY!  Food is a Drug #Paleo and I'm planning on healing with it!

I've been dealing with a nagging shoulder injury for almost a year.  I can't put my finger on a moment the injury happened which is frustrating and had me wondering if it was mental.  At the beginning of January I opted for an MRI which indeed indicated that I have a 50% torn rotators cuff and my surgeon is pretty certain I have a SLAP tear as well.  I was so relieved to know this information but also shocked to hear the recovery after surgery.  Last week after scheduling the MRI, I've had 2 weeks to do as much preparation as I can.  I've been grinding it out at home and at work so that the transition can go as smooth possible.

Wednesday's I work 13-14 hours and so you can bet that I almost always use my crock pot on those nights.  Otherwise, I try to match up the easier meals for our heavier loads on our calendar.   Here's our meal plan for this week. I write out our menu plan on this magnet that's on our fridge.  It makes it easier for me to remember to pull meat and thaw from the freezer in advance. That Jambalaya is in my Instant Pot (on slow cooker mode) as we speak. I've done a horrible job of food pictures that last couple of weeks but wanted to share this recipe with you.  I made it before Christmas.  F

I've meal planned this week, bought my food, and am ready to do work.  I was going to share it all with you but than I thought, "hmm, I wonder what those read this blog about Paleo want to know?"  So I created a survey and I'm interested on hearing your thoughts.  There are only a few questions.  Help a girl out here:  Food is a Drug #Paleo SURVEY
