This week’s real food meal plan and agenda focus on the end of year activities, family visiting and more packing.

The weekly Real Food Meal Plan from Just Take A Bite

This is it. The final push before the end of the school year and end of activities. I’m trying to prepare myself mentally today for one last crazy week before we can relax a little. We have dance class, dance rehearsal and dance recital, piano, t-ball and family visiting. Plus orthodontist, grocery shopping and cleaning. Did I mention our cupboards are bare and I need to restock just about all of our homemade snacks, etc.?

It’s going to be one of “those” weeks.

In the kitchen.

So I have to be organized. Here is what I have planned for kitchen projects.

Cooking with kids.

One thing I’m looking forward to after all the busyness is over is having time to get my kids in the kitchen (this is NOT the week for that). We have been going through the Kids Cook Real Food eCourse (so fun!!), and my kids are anxious to practice more skills.

You can get in on this fun too!! Check out the free knife skills videos today. Then tomorrow the one week window for sign up begins. It is the perfect summer project. By fall your kids will be packing their own lunches and helping make dinner.

Holiday treats.

If you need a quick, allergen friendly treat for your holiday check out these simple fruit slushies!! My kids go crazy for them.

Here is our real food meal plan for the week. We need dinner early almost every single night. And I don’t have a lot of time for prep or clean up. So I did my best to keep things super simple. Then hosting on the weekend.

What’s on your menu this week?
