WEEKLY LUNCH PLAN 003

October 20, 2017 in Simple Food

Who loves to plan lunch? 

Yep, me neither.

I've got to be honest, planning dinner makes me want to take a nap. I get finished with our weekly dinner plan, only to realize we need to eat breakfast and lunch too?

 This is too much.

A short time ago, our weekly lunches could be some form of leftovers. Those were the days you guys. Three kids later, our kitchen hasn't seen a leftover since 2007. Our people like to eat. 

I've got a hunch, your family might be like ours. You really want to save money on lunch but don't know where to begin? I've got your back. 

Here is a simple weekly lunch plan. My meal plan comes right from my local Aldi store. Everything you need for lunch, you can pick up there. No extra special trips required. 

Of course, if you shop at another grocery store, you can use my plan there too! Do what works for you. 

At the end of this post, I included a shopping list and a prep ahead option. If you want to prep your lunches on the weekend, this option is for you! 

Also, check out our FREE Aldi prep ahead lunch plan below. It includes free printable shopping list and prep schedule.

MEAL 1 - SALAMI + PROVOLONE ON WHEAT

This lunch is a crowd pleaser at my house. Grill up salami and provolone on whole wheat bread. I grill these up in the morning while the coffee is brewing. It doesn't take much time and is so good. 

Serve with some veggie chips and fresh fruit.

MEAL 2 - PEPPERONI QUESADILLA 

Pepperoni quesadillas are my boy's absolute favorite lunch! It could not be more simple. Take one 8" flour tortilla, layer with shredded cheddar cheese and turkey pepperoni. Lay another tortilla on top. Place in a skillet with a little butter and cook until crisp and the cheese is melted. Slice in triangles. 

I served this with leftover pumpkin muffins and sliced plums.

MEAL 3 - FROZEN PIZZA 

My husband was out of town all week and I found a lonely pizza at the bottom of the freezer! LUNCH! Sometimes lunch is using what you have and a frozen pizza is a cheap way to feed your people. 

Serve with veggie chips and grapes.

MEAL 4  - PROTEIN BOX

Hard boil 2 eggs and place in your lunch container. We love Aldi's whole wheat mini bagels for breakfast and lunch! For this lunch, we toasted 2 bagels and spread with peanut butter. 

Serve with sliced apple, slices of cheddar cheese, and grapes.
