Healthy Vegetarian Meal Plan: Week of 8-13-16

Hiya babesicles.

What happened this week?! What and where and when and how and are you eating? I want to hear about all the donuts and kale salads and lentil burgers and sweet potato fries you ate or plan on eating tonight/tomorrow/tomorrow night. I've been craving Jeni's ice cream like woah after having the most delish cone last week. Definitley happening tomorrow.

Pre-ice cream, lettuce indulge in the deliciousness that is this simple meal plan. You know what I always say....fail to prepare, prepare to fail! AKA get your hiney off the couch and roast some sweet potatoes or something.
