Meal plan for the week

As part of a challenge for my Hogwarts team, I'm posting my meal plan for this week. The challenge also focuses on whole foods, so there are a lot of them in there--but I try not to eat a lot of processed food, anyway. I haven't checked points or calories on this plan, and my guess is that it's a little under what I normally eat. Not all the snacks are fully planned out, and I'm sure there will be a couple more coffees with milk in them. I'll check back in at the end of the week to let you know how closely I stuck to this plan.

[Monday note: tweaked the plan, deciding to try for ALL whole foods. I realized that I have an evening out planned on Tuesday--along with Monday and Wednesday--and that messes up cooking a bit, switching it to crockpot. I also had an inspiration from a team member's menu planning that I can have cooked whole grains for breakfast to help me ditch the bread.]

Alternate lunch: one day this week, I'll have a social lunch out with a friend. Whenever that is, I'll have either chicken breast and grilled/steamed veggies or a salad bar with all veggies, beans and/or egg, no cheese or dressing.
