This Week’s Meal Plan

20 Tuesday Sep 2011

You’ll have to excuse me for not posting this last week. Little T had a little fever from his chicken pox vaccine and was getting two molars in, and all he wanted to eat was oatmeal and watered down apple juice. Usually Little T will eat anything he can see, so this was a big change. It was a challenge trying to get him to eat anything, poor baby. By the end of the week he was feeling better and back to his normal, quinoa eating self.

Breakfast:

Oatmeal with Fruit (Little T’s Favorite-I add a little agave and cinnamon to the oatmeal)
Dr. Oz’s Green Drink
English Muffin with Trader Joe’s Organic Blueberry Fruit Spread

Snacks:

Trader Joe’s Soy Yogurt
Sliced White Nectarines and baked apples with cinnamon (Little T)
Corn Thin’s with Hummus and English Cucumber
Wheat Bread with Almond Butter (Little T)

Lunch:

Pasta and veggies (Little T)
Salad with Tahini Dressing (Momma J)
Chili Mac from FatFreeVegan (Little T)
Black beans, avocado, and vegetables (Little T)

Dinner:

Middle Eastern Millet Pilaf with Cinnamon, Carrots and Onion from The Veggie Queen Pressure Cooking E-Book
Baked Potatoes with sauteed mushrooms and bell peppers
Autumn Sunset Stew from The Veggie Queen Pressure Cooking E-Book (yay for Fall!)
Veggie Burritos (refried beans, broccoli, corn, and salsa)

Here’s our menu plan for the week. I try to cook in batches so we have enough food for a day or two. The recipes are pretty simple, but if it’s something more difficult I’ll make it on the weekend while Big T is around to watch Little T. I also take a look at what fruits and vegetables we have around the house to make sure they aren’t going to waste and try to make things that Little T can eat on his own.

Breakfast:

Oatmeal with Baked Apples-2 diced apples shaken in a bag with cinnamon and nutmeg, then microwaved in a covered bowl with a little soymilk for 2 minutes to soften. Obviously, it tastes better if you do it on the stove or in the oven, but the microwave is quick and easy.
Sugar Free Peach Muffins from http://www.fatfreevegan.com
Green Drink- kale, romaine lettuce, apple, ginger, celery, pear, and lemon.

Snacks:

Fruit Salad
Healthy Almond Butter Bombs-made with oatmeal, almond butter, agave, and mashed bananas.
Watermelon Juice-watermelon in the juicer with a squeeze of lemon)

Lunches:

Summer Minestrone from The Veggie Queen’s e-book.
Mexican Lasagna from http://www.fatfreevegan.com
Salad with Tahini Dressing–A variation from the Crazy Sexy Diet Cookbook. This is more for myself, but Little T loves the Tahini Dressing.

I don’t ever plan out dinners and toss together whatever ingredients we have. I do know that I want to try to this recipe for roasted tomato soup from Healthy Happy Life, and the recipe for bread salad from The Veggie Queen’s Cookbook.
