As always, our focus is on a wide variety of veggies and fruits, lean protein, and high fiber whole grains. But within that variety, I don't mind repetition. The weekly veggie chop has at least 6 different veggies but we eat it daily. We have found one of the best ways to monitor our caloric intake is to limit our choices, not to mention the time and money this saves. Breakfasts for sure: we pretty much eat one of three or four meals every single day. But this week, I also repeat a couple of snacks and lunches. That container of cottage cheese has to be used within the week anyway!
