I am so excited about this week’s meal plan! I received my copy of Trim Healthy Table last week, and many recipes on the meal plan are from that book. If you don’t yet have your copy, do yourself a favor and order one right now! It is so good and is full of many family-friendly meals and recipes that do not require special ingredients. The gals over at THM have really outdone themselves with this cookbook!!! I highly, highly recommend this cookbook. It has a great overview of the plan (like a cliff notes version) in the first three chapters of the book that is great to read and review.
