I'm kind of breaking away from the normal use of this blog and decided to set up a recipe blog so anyone can see what exactly this crazy family eats every day. We are very consistent and dedicated to good health. We have a unique way of eating that has brought us health and happiness.

Breakfast: oats and berries (fresh...went to Costco again yesterday...I love that store)

all except Jenny...the darling child begged me to give her jobs yesterday so she could earn money..since we'd had a busy weekend and didn't get our normal chores done I was of course more than willing. She vacuumed and dusted the entire upstairs and earned enough to buy herself a box of cereal at Good Earth which she will eat with great relish and delight in front of all the other children for the rest of the week.

Joseph didn't finish breakfast because a spider appeared at the table....We need to get out of the house today....

Lunch: Rotini Pasta w/ meat sauce

sides: Green salad/ baby carrots

Dinner: Cheesy Adzuki Bean Casserole (my kids will eat almost any leftovers if I make it into a cheesy mexican casserole...added some salsa, garlic and cheese and they loved it)

sides: grapes

Dessert: Cherry Cobbler

as soon as we finished our lessons yesterday my kids raced out the door and picked a huge amount of cherries. Then we spent the afternoon pitting them and checking for ...well...you know..extra unwanted protein. I think Julia and I were the biggest fans of the result. Joseph liked it too but Jacob..the kid who eats pretty much everything wouldn't touch it. I think maybe just maybe he actually doesn't like cherries.

Breakfast: The baby must be growing muscles or his brain is developing or something..I have not been able to stomach oats for the past few days and have been craving Breakfast Burritos..I finally got to the store and bought some eggs and had two and a half burritos with cheese and chicken sausage. Then I finished it off with some Cherry Cobbler and cream. I'm looking forward to feeling great this morning. I was so weak yesterday and could barely keep up with my kids at the library and had to strap them in the stroller and let them fuss....very not fun.

Lunch: Lentils and Rice

Green Salad

after my huge breakfast I wasn't hungry until about 3:00 in the afternoon. I still fed everyone but not until much later than normal

Dinner: Homemade cheese and chicken sausage pizza

green salad

The salad we will be eating this week is the basic spring mix they sell at Costco...it's great because it is prewashed. I always have a hard time feeling like I've washed the lettuce enough. The salad from Costco is alot of salad for only 4 dollars...it will give us enough for salads a couple of times a day and maybe smoothies for a week for my big family.  Sometimes we eat it straight. Sometimes with dressing or other veggies.

Breakfast: oatmeal and berries ( although I have to admit I was craving eggs again)

Lunch: Picnic in the park with G-ma and cousins visiting from California..ones my kids have never met before because of a divorce in that family.

Leftover Pizza

Strawberries

Dinner: French Toast w/ berries and pure maple syrup

When I made the pizza dough yesterday and made a little loaf of bread that I used for the french toast today.

Happy 4th tomorrow everyone..we've got some special meals planned and I'm sure you all are going to have a wonderful day.

Breakfast: Fourth of July Pancakes (strawberries, blueberries, cottage cheese)

I am proud to say that my darling Benjamin made the pancakes all by himself...He even ground the flour fresh(the dear woke up at 6:30 so we could have our picnic breakfast while watching the balloons rise over the mountains)

Lunch: Baked Potato Bar...I've been looking forward to this....

toppings: cottage cheese, grated cheese blend, sour cream, corn, green peppers, tomatoes, onions, spring mix salad blend, broccoli, salt, pepper, ranch dressing, ceasar dressing, barbeque sauce (don't know if anyone will use this..we'll see)..umm...I think that's it....I can't wait..they are taking forever to cook

Dinner: Bagels and Cream Cheese

i didn't eat too much because i was still full from lunch. Somehow all of my children were hungry so we actually ate this meal way earlier than I was planning. I was thinking we'd have it as a late night snack type of thing when we'd finally digested our huge lunch....I guess I'll have it for a later snack when I've finally digested those huge potatoes I ate.   By the way..I did try the barbeque sauce with the potatoes. I think I actually put a little bit of every topping on mine. It was all delicious.

Breakfast: Breakfast Burritos (eggs, whole wheat tortillas, green peppers, corn...leftover toppings from the potato bar yesterday) 

The kids however want oats but for some reason I still can't stand the sight of them....I don't want to eat eggs everyday but I just don't feel like oats or oatmeal.

Lunch: Leftover Baked Potato....still have plenty of potatoes and toppings so I think we'll do this lunch again.

Dinner: TBA
