Weekly Menu (9/2/12-9/8/12)

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

• corn on the cob
• romaine lettuce
• tomatoes
• anaheim peppers
• avocados
• peaches
• pears
• grapes
• grapefruit
• and coconut oil!  They offered 64 fl.oz of organic virgin coconut oil as an extra this time and I was pretty excited about it. :D

I also have bananas, carrots, cherries, zucchini, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, red potatoes, potatoes, onions, crookneck squash, and raspberries 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, hardboiled 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 peaches 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).
