What we ate today

If you were wondering how this all turned out.... we did really well the past couple of days, and oddly the kids didn't seem to realize anything was all that different. Here is what we ate today. The kids surprised me by LOVING the salmon. If you can't see any of the links, I have published them all over on my recipe blog

• Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs, steel cut oatmeal (its the chunkier oatmeal) and turkey bacon
• snack: banannas
• lunch: african peanut butter sweet potato soup, nitrate free hot dogs, cut oranges, a nice garden salad
• snack #1: handful of walnuts
• snack #2: cut apple w/ TBL natural peanut butter
• Dinner: Honey Soy Broiled Salmon, sauteed kale (blech), Black eyed peas, zuchini, and pan fried leftover potatoes (yeah, not the best choice, but we had some left over. We won't be including white potatoes much in the diet)
• Dessert: Apples, Pears and coconut stir fry

All in all, it was yummy. Well, except for the kale. But we were adventurous and tried it.

Tomorrow will be our next big challenge. We are heading to the zoo for Homeschool day. This means I have to pack a lunch... a lunch that contains no bread, no crackers, no dairy, no soy, and no sugar. It's a brain bleeder. Hopefully insipiration will strike really really soon.
