Weekly Meal Plan

I've been a little under the weather the last couple of days, PLUS my daughter had two baby teeth pulled, the car has been in the shop, and I have been playing stay-at-home mom! Sheesh, that's hard work.

The puker

The toothless 

The crazy one

Anyway, I got another bountiful basket (2 of them in reality,,, which is probably excess, but I would rather have TOO MANY veggies, than not enough.)

This week we got: 2 clam-shells of strawberries 10 oranges, 2 grapefruit (I traded the rest of them to my sister for extra tomatoes), 3 clam-shells of baby tomatoes, 20 of the hugest carrots I have ever seen, a heap of both orange and red bell peppers (which I adore), 2 broccoli, a bag plus a few loose red potatoes, 2 big zucchini, 4 English cucumbers, and 4 beautiful big yellow onions,

Here's the breakdown of the menu:

Breakfasts:

cereal (my kids' favorite)

German pancakes with strawberries

Omelets (probably made in the waffle maker.)

2 extra large eggs with ham and peppers thrown in a Belgian Waffle maker turns out SUPER yummy (add cheese after!) 

baked oatmeal

cereal

leftover oatmeal bake

Lunches:

Carrot Applesauce muffins (from http://www.100daysofrealfood.com/2013/10/25/recipe-whole-wheat-carrot-applesauce-muffins/), with oranges and cut up veggies 

Leftovers/quick food after church

Finger Food (crackers, cheese, lunch meat, veggies, fruit)

Cordon Bleu Casserole (chicken, rice, ham, and cheese, YUM!) with zuchinni

Stuffed peppers/meatballs with smashed red potatoes and broccoli

I am super excited for all the yumminess going on this week. I will try to keep adding recipes as I cook, but no guarantees.
