Last week was just crazy. I am definitely not used to working out of the house every day of the week–even just mornings! We weren’t sick, but there were quite a few days when I didn’t cook. We ended up eating frozen leftovers and other leftovers and the fresh veggies I had cooked. So, a lot of this week’s menu is a repeat.
The theme for the GF Menu Swap over at Celiac Family is broccolini! I am interested to learn the difference between broccoli and broccolini. I don’t recall ever having used broccolini before. We do eat broccoli regularly though! My favorite is roasted broccoli and the last couple of weeks I’ve been fixing it that way for my snacks for the week. Of course it’s so good that it doesn’t last the whole week, but that’s another story!
Last week my favorite meal was the Potato Soup. I couldn’t believe how easy and tasty it was with cashew sour cream and almond milk. I will be making that again this winter! This week we’ll be working on using up the things we didn’t eat last week! The breakfast of the week is Paleo Pancakes and sausage. We are certainly going through the maple syrup! I don’t mind as long it means the end of the Breakfast Wars!
