{No More} Manic Meal Plan Monday

With nothing but appetizers and sweets on the brain lately, it kind of felt good to sit down and map out some ACTUAL meals! Somewhere in between all the holiday parties, shopping, and dinners with friends it is awesome to have a few healthy home-cooked plates of goodness in your pocket. And I dunno about you guys, but with the sun setting so early I am ready for bed at like 8:30. Yes. Party animal over here.  So anyway. Let’s work this out.

MONDAY
Hot Mess Burger

Let’s get Meatless Monday rolling with these Hot Mess Black Eyed Pea Burgers from Sugar Dish Me! This is my favorite way to trash up a veggie burger. You can also make these patties ahead of time and refrigerate for a super quick meal!
