I created a recipe for slow cooker brisket that is free of FODMAPs and Nightshades for the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah back in 2016 when both my mom and grandma were following a FODMAP/Nightshade free diet…
Wedding week meal plan time - I seriously don’t know if we’ll even end up following this because I had the great/terrible idea of working this entire week up the the night before the rehearsal/rehearsal dinner… Here we go!!!
We. Are. Getting. So. Close. To. The. WEDDING! 19 days to go as of today (7/29). I cannot believe it. We’ve been engaged since 10/7/17 and when we booked our 8/17/19 wedding it felt like it was EONS away. Time goes much faster when you’re older. And doing things like buying houses. And planning weddings. And starting two businesses. Especially during the “wedding season” years of life when there are sometimes 7+ weddings and more than half are out of state… insert upside down face emoji here!
I skipped putting up the week of 7/22 because it was a total throw together, hodgepodge week! Plus, I am in the middle of a ton of projects, students, clients, wedding planning, coordinating things for our HOA… and the list goes on haha! Needless to say, we are in total survival mode this week and I am looking forward to a more calm few weeks leading up to the wedding on 8/17!
Meal planning on here for the week of 7/1 was so much fun, I decided to do it again! I figured I would sometimes post and sometimes just do a quick plan on my Notes app but honestly, I loved referencing my own site throughout the prepping process!

One of my goals for the site (and my instagram) has always been to share what I’m doing in hopes to help others make healthy choices and changes in their own lives. Meal planning and prepping became the center of that for a while and as I continue to tweak the way I go about doing things, I figured this would be a wonderful time to share my process!
Growing up as a good suburban Jewish girl, chopped liver is a High Holiday staple! Whether you get it from the local deli or make it yourself, don’t be scared to try it! Offal is not awful! It is actually quite good for you, especially when you get high quality liver! Enjoy my take on my Nana’s Chopped Liver :)
Matt is all about the Italian flavors - give him a tomato based dish with slightly spicy sausage and he will eat it for every.single.meal. This is not a joke! I, on the other hand, am the complete opposite! I need a ton of variety in my diet - no two days of eating ever look the same! What about you?! I’d love to hear from you in the comments! In the meantime, I hope you enjoy one of Matt’s favorite meals!
It’s been a while…
If you didn’t just sing that, I’m not sure we can be friends ;)
