MPM

I didn't make a single thing from my menu list last week. Instead we ate; toast, dry o's, dry plain waffles, banana's, oatmeal & crackers with diluted electrolyte drinks & warm tea with lemon & honey, plus a healthy dose of probiotics for all.
Yes, we had the stomach bug at our house last week. It didn't last long for each individual child, but by the time each child and myself experienced it, a week had passed.
However, I really can't complain, we haven't had any sickness at our since my baby had ear infection last July.

With that being said, my menu list is the same as last weeks.

  • Baked Salmon Fillets ~ I steam bake with a little olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, dill and salt/pepper
  • Chicken Beasts & Black Beans on Spinach ~ learn to make your own black beans here
  • Sesame Chicken & Barley
  • Grilled Hamburgers- maybe twice! ~ I am using up the last few packages of our grass fed hamburger, we are butchering in a week, yippee!I am tired of the bad rap beef gets. Did you know beef, GRASS FED beef, is not terrible for you? It is better for you, the cows, the land, and tastes DELICIOUS. When you purchase grass fed beef, you are supporting small, local farmers of America.
  • Baked Rigatoni ~ I personally am not a big fan of pork, however, when we eat it, we eat Beelers
  • Indoor Grilled Pizza, recipe from Cooks Illustrated
**All meals will be served with raw or cooked veggies, raw fruits & a salad, plus a whole grain if it isn't included in the main dish.

What will you be eating this week?

Thanks for visiting me. :) I homeschool too! Yay! Great menu. The grass fed beef sounds great! Sorry you guys were sick. My little one had a fever for 5 days. :(
Sounds like you are back into the swing of things. Enjoy your week.

Thanks for visiting my site! We had a stomach bug, too, last week. :( Not something I'd like to have in common. Yuck-O!

Your menu looks awesome! Hopefully you actually get to cook this week. :)

Thanks for visiting my site, too -- boy, you were busy! :-) I love your posts, and am looking forward to sharing some of your healthy ideas with our Health Nuts group.

I'm glad your family is over the stomach bug. It visited our house, too, and I am very grateful for my Bissell rug cleaner (enough said).

Have a fabulous week!!
