10 days. Anyone know what happens in 10 days? School starts!!! Yes, the day that has most parents dancing in the streets and that most kids dread – the beloved first day of school. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out my Back-to-School post. This week has us running around getting things done for school. Jon picks up his schedule on Tuesday, Hannah has an open house next Sunday. I am going to try to fit in last pool and Zoo visits and maybe even head someplace to go blueberry picking!
I bought lots of new, fun produce to cook with this week. Yucca root, red beets (to roast), acorn squash & spaghetti squash. (I have had the last 2 before, but I am doing new things with them).
Sunday ~ Grilled chicken, baked sweet potato with cinnamon & Fage, fresh green beans & okra and salad
Monday ~ Mexican Pizzas (black beans & avocado for me; ground turkey for the kids), Cilantro/Lime Rice, corn & salad.
Tuesday ~ Honey Baked Lentils in Acorn Squash and large salad
Wednesday ~ Mediterranean Tuna Pasta (recipe to come this week), asparagus & salad
Thursday ~ Chicken Parmesan, quinoa pasta, broccoli & salad
Friday ~ Homemade Bob’s Red Mill mini pizzas (each picks their own toppings), veggies & salad
Saturday ~ Bday party & I have a fun night planned with a friend and some other GF peeps!

Cheryl over at Gluten-Free Goodness is hosting this week’s gluten-free menu swap & the ingredient of the week is peaches! I love peaches!! I like to chop them up for my cereal bowls, top my waffles with them, top my cottage cheese with them, top my Greek yogurt with them. I really do love them. I am going to attempt a peach cobbler this week, too! š Thanks for hosting, Cheryl!!
Also, don’t forget to check out Orgjunkie for lots more menu plans.

My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.

I love the idea of those mexican pizzas! Any excuse for avocado works for me.
Oh yeah, love the avocados here and I am the only one that will eat them! LOL! Fine by me!!
[…] got Kim joining us from Gluten Free is Life for a variety of yummy looking options, like honey lentils and mexican pizzas using avocado.Ā She […]
I love that you post your meal plans for the week. I wish I was that organized! š
Thanks! It is one of the only ways I can keep my head in line! LOL! If I don’t plan, there is a lot of fending for oneself & the kids don’t appreiciate that so much! š
Let me know how the Yucca root is. I have never made it, but want to give it a try.
The Mexican pizza looks great! It would be a nice change from the ordinary cheeseless pizzas I eat, esp since I can’t have cheese. With all the flavor from the beans, tomato and avocado I def wouldn’t miss the cheese š
I will let you know how the yucca root is!
Great looking menu!
Thanks Pam!!
