The above picture is of Jackson before the BYU vs. Ole Miss game. I made "Cougar Tails" and "Cougar Paws" and he was thrilled. Lately, Jackson has been quite the jokester. As he helped me in the kitchen he said: "Mommy, maybe you should make Cougar bums...Hahahahaaaa." Love that kid. I haven't posted a menu plan in ages. I stopped getting a
Bountiful Basket for awhile because the quality seemed to be dwindling, but I decided to get one yesterday and I was happy with my offering. Yeay!
Here's what I got:
- 2 heads of romaine lettuce
- spinach
- celery
- cauliflower
- potatoes
- mangos
- green grapes
- pears
- tomatoes
- plums
I chopped up my lettuce and mixed it with the spinach. Then I put it into gallon storage bags so the mix would last longer. We're going to be eating a lot of freaking salad in these parts this week! Lately I've been sort of obsessed with
Mark's Daily Apple. It's a website that promotes living and eating like our hunter/gatherer Paleolithic ancestors. There are a myriad of reasons I'm interested in this approach, but maybe I'll explain that in another post. Just wanted to explain why I have a bunch of Paleo recipes on the menu for the week.
Here's my plan:
Breakfast:
- Eggs. sauteed zucchini, and turkey bacon
- Zucchini, Banana, Almond Smoothies (I have zucchini coming out of my ears)
Lunch:
- Leftovers from dinner
- Salads
Dinner:
- Thursday: I have class: Leftovers
- Sunday: Souvlaki with veggies, (rice for Andy and Jackson)
Desserts:
