    Sorry for the lack of posting as of late. The past week and a half has been super busy with getting the house ready for company, hosting my mom and pop for a few days, having Josh’s mom and dad visit, and then finally, recuperating.

    Josh, Jude, and I spent Friday night in the suburbs at our friend’s house visiting. We came home early Saturday morning, but because Jude refused to sleep all of Friday night, we took a nap during co-op/farmers’ market hours and missed shopping at either place. Luckily, I have a bag full of CSA goodies to help us get through the week. Here’s what on our menu:

    Breakfast:
    Cereal with milk and fresh fruit
    Oatmeal with flaxseed meal, frozen fruit, cinnamon, and honey
    Cottage cheese with green smoothies

    Lunch/Dinner:
    Leftover minestrone soup
    Black bean and rice burritos on homemade flour tortillas
    Pasta w/fresh basil pesto
    Homemade veggie pizza (peppers, onions)
    Black bean burgers w/baked potatoes and braised turnips w/ greens
    Home made mac & cheese w/frozen peas and corn on the cob
    Eggs and bagels w/fresh fruit and a green smoothies
    Cheese and basil polenta with tomato basil sauce and a salad
    Brown rice with red lentils, barley, almonds, and cranberries
    ALTs (avocado, lettuce, and tomato sandwhiches)

    Snacks
    Salads
    Baba ghanous
    Green smoothies
    White bean, asparagus and basil hummus with chopped veggies

    Angie-Thanks so much! For us, breakfast is pretty much the same every week; it’s rarely something I really plan. The other meals act as both dinners and lunches–we love leftovers!
