Cool Weather & Comfort Foods

I love fall and all the foods that go along with it, so in my attempt to have an overall healthy eating habits I hope to make some of my favorites a little on the lighter side... I did the grocery shopping this week.
Note: Most of the time Ben goes, its something we started when we had child #2.. It was easier for him to go before church then me trying to go with 2 kids, well now 3!

With that I was in the mood for some of my favorite comfort foods, since its going to be only around 60 all week...

Here's what is on my menu for this week...

Ham and Beans ( Crockpot)
Tortilla Soup ( Crockpot)
Mexican Chicken Rice Casserole
Roast with Sweet Potatoes (Crockpot)
Chicken Chili (Crockpot)

Do you see a trend?? I love the the crockpot I can make almost anything in it!! Also I love beans, its great because my girls love beans too... Rosalyn loves beans! This also helps the budget!

I have made enough that I will have leftovers for lunch and some to freeze..

This week I will be hitting the gym hard, here is my plan:

Mon~ Run, Arms
Tues~ Class
Wed~ Run, Arms
Thurs~ Spin =)

I was really hoping to spin at least 2 times this week, but they took it off of the 4:30 schedule and I just can't make the other times...
