This weeks menu

I have created a habit with meal times. I plan my menu for the week on Sunday. And to keep it simple (reduced stress) I don't vary my menu much from day to day. I plan Minday through Thursday. I know on Friday morning I weigh in for WW and that day gets a splurge of sorts. Usually that means a sandwich from the grocery store.
So this weeks menu starts with
Decaf Starbucks Kcups black... This is a continuation of last years detox quest. The suggestion to reduce dairy intake for a few weeks as well as caffeine. The decaf coffee was a good transition. Sure I drink the occasional caf in coffee or soda but my mornings are mainly decaf. The black aspect . I don't mind it black. In all honesty I rather enjoy getting my milk as a glass of milk not hidden in a cup of coffee. It would also help if I actually had some milk in the house.
I have also pulled together some non fat plain Greek yogurt which could really pretend to be sour cream. I am mixing that with strawberries, cinnamon, vanilla and spinach. Yes I threw that last one in there for shock value. It is one of those veggies I could eat all the time. Put it in anything. So I have some still in the fridge... So there it went.
Lunch is the mix of veg I posted earlier. I have another pic I should post.
I think I will need to get some apples to have along with it. For the crunch factor. I was thinking some Wasa with it would be good as well.
Dinner.... Hold on to your hats... There is not much left in the fridge in the realm of dinner. I have eggs and imagine this - spinach. And tomatoes. I am actually looking forward to that. I also have a jar of pickled herring. Yes, that's the hold on to your hats part. It is a healthy fish that I try to eat every once in a while. It has been in there for a while. So this week needs to be the week. And there are some other veg in the freezer.
So pretty much I just need to go to the grocer for apples. Oh and a snack for the Oscar Red Carpet event this afternoon. I will not be dressing in all my finery but surely going to comment on everyone else's look.
