Breakfast: Oats, milk, pb and carob powder (1 T Peanut Butter and 1/8 tsp carob powder)

Lunch: Freedom Fries (see Healthy Recipes for recipe)

sides: Bunny Money (carrots sliced in the usual carrot slicing fashion and I tell my kids it's bunny money...famous Mommy quote "The more you eat, the richer you'll be" and then we talk about how carrots can make you rich.  

Dinner: Creamy Vegetable Soup

I just kind of made this up and put in one large russet potato, 1 large yam, 3 carrots, 2 stalks of celery, salt and pepper to taste, dash of thyme and garlic salt.

I boil this up in a medium sauce pan filled with water and then blend it in the K-tec until the desired texture....less blending for chunkier. I usually put the veggies in and then add water to reach the consistency I want.

sides; organic saltine crackers

Brk: oats w an assortment of yummy things to choose from: (we all made up our own combo) blackberries, walnuts, peanut butter, granola or coconut. 

Lunch: wow...what a fun meal we had today..I took the kids to the latest restuarant craze....Mommy Burger!!

I made Turkey burgers on homemade whole wheat hamburger buns, freedom fries and milkshakes (carob, banana and a little soymilk).  We pretended we had gone out for burgers and the kids had a fun time ordering their food from me.  

For the turkey burgers I used 1 pound ground turkey and added about 3/4 cup raw rolled oats, salt and pepper to taste, 1 t dried onion, 1/2 t garlic powder and a bit of thyme.

Dinner: Cereal (i think it's called toasted cinnamon squares from Good Earth)..was tired from all the cooking for lunch so I opted for a dinner from our 72 hour kit..you know for emergencies. Our church counsels us to have a 72 hour kit on hand with items and food to help us get through 72 hours of emergency needs. We also our supposed to rotate these items. So I buy some convenience type foods like boxed cereals or canned things and use these for nights I need something really fast.  

Breakfast: Homemade whole wheat pancakes w an assortment of all fruit jam.

The best part was that Benjamin actually made these pancakes himself on his own initiative!!

Lunch: Tuna Salad on homemade whole wheat buns (leftover from mommy burger yesterday)

Dinner: Buckwheat w various toppings...corn, salsa, cheese, lettuce, onions.

sides: green beans

so...I slacked a couple of days..with new baby it will be hit and miss on this blog

Breakfast: Cereal from Good Earth as a distracting treat with Daddy gone

Lunch: (I made cinnamon rolls last night and decided to just eat them up for a brunch type lunch today)...

sides: yummy fruit salad with the help of some fancy fruit from Maurine..grapes, apples, blueberries, blackberries, coconut and a dash of fructose.

 Dinner: Lentil Soup....it has lentils, rice, yams, and chicken sausage with a dash of salt and pepper for taste...yummy and easy.
