Menu Plan Monday, March 17th!

Standard

I was so delighted that the Princess drank the Pink Panther Smoothie and said, “Mommy that was yum yum in my tum tum tum,” and asked for it again the next day! She’s also started eating breakfast cookies again. I am so thrilled she’s eating something besides cereal that’s portable which we certainly needed adjusting to the time change last week.

The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over Celiac Family is avocado. I love avocado and think it is good in just about anything. This morning I had some in my Pink Detox Smoothie and it also makes a delightful Chocolate Shake for a decadent less healthy treat.

Dinner: Popcorn, roasted broccoli and cauliflower, strawberries with vanilla coconut ice cream

Rest of the week:

  1. I am glad you addressed the food items in the picture because I was afraid to ask.

    I take it that they were “yum yum in your tum tum tum. ” 😛

    • Ah I know they are terribly ugly. I tried to roast 4 pans of veggies and cook fish while making them and it just didn’t happen the right way. I wanted to add a picture of my delightful pink smoothie this morning but I had to run out the door. The peppermint patties are very yum yum!

    • I am the only one who will eat avocados around here so occasionally I buy one too many–then into the freezer it goes and I’m set for making the best chocolate shake I’ve ever had without the icky feeling afterwards! 😀
