Weekly Menu (8/26/12-9/1/12)

This week in our half of the Bountiful Basket (I share with my brother) we got:

• brussel sprouts
• romaine lettuce 
• cauliflower
• anaheim peppers 
• cherries 
• nectarines
• apple pears
• champagne grapes

I also have green leafy lettuce, oranges, apples, peaches, corn on the cob, potatoes and carrots to supplement the basket.


This week for breakfast: There is Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins, Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins, and Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins to choose from, fresh fruit, and cereal for the kids; and smoothies, water kefir with fruit puree, scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, and baked oatmeal for me.


This week for lunches: School is in full swing now for both of my boys: my older son is in second grade and takes a lunch from home, my younger son is in preschool and eats lunch at the sitters--she does an awesome job taking care of him.   For myself, I plan on eating leftovers, I'll also have carrots and cauliflower with hummus everyday and a glass of water kefir with fruit puree (a good portion of my nectarines, and cherries will go to that). My husband always has sandwiches, chips, and a banana in his lunch (boring, but that's what he likes).
