Breakfast, lunch and dinner oh my!!!

JW has food allergies and is a bit picky so cooking has totally changed for me.

Breakfast consisted of almond flour pancakes, waffles, donuts and muffins baked fresh every morning by yours truly. Which was fun and not really a big deal until I learned he wasn't eating his breakfast at school :-( then all the baking kind of seemed like a waste of time! So I'm on a new adventure of finding a semi healthy, maybe only slightly processed breakfast for a kiddo with allergies and a case of pickiness.

So I'm going to use this blog to kind of keep track of it and if you have an idea please share!!!!

Lunch - protein, veggie and fruit. He loves it and always eats it!

Dinner - protein, veggie, starch

Let the adventure begin today, JW's 3rd birthday!!!

Breakfast made the night before:
Carrots - who says they can't be a breakfast
Almonds - raw
Yogurt covered raisins - the processed, out of the value bin dispenser, cheaper then the boxed ones
Blackberries - yummy

Packed in a ziploc container and used cupcake paper things.

An unconventional breakfast but I would say still healthy!



Lunch: JW school does offer lunch and I actually had to bring a doctor note saying I would provide his lunch. The school is totally school about it and they even heat up his lunch! Such a blessing!!!!
Veggies - 99% of the time they are the Kroger frozen veggies that are 1.00! Never cooked in plastic! NEVER! I have one Corningware container with a lid, I think it's called stoneware. That's all I use, no need to be fancy! But we never microwave plastic.
Fruit - rarely organic, I just can't justify the cost
Meat - mostly organic but if not than a brand that claims to not use antibiotics or hormones.

Made the night before and packed in his planet box.

Meat - grilled chicken from tonight, it's the Kroger simple truth brand, I buy the smallest weight to save a couple of bucks.
Veggies - green beans and Lima beans with a hint of olive oil and sea salt added after they were cooked.
Fruit - strawberries




BOOM! Ready for tomorrow so now I can have a little more freedom in the morning!
