I know that when I don't plan a menu that the week definitely doesn't go well as far as food preparation. I also know that lately when I make a plan all it means is that I've written a something down not actually followed through. In my defense, last week my Mom cooked for us one day, and my kids weren't home for two of the planned days. I cooked once.....give me a medal :D
On Wednesday, I end my dairy free adventure. I seriously miss cheese, but I like the way my hands feel when I'm not eating it. Less pain is a great thing. I'm doing some research on the best of the worst and I am going to slowly add certain things back in and see how I react. I really liked the Toffuti brand cream cheese and sour cream, so I think I'll use those exclusively now. I also like the Earth Balance dairy/soy free spread. Nothing replaces real butter but now I'm consciously deciding whether or not a suitable replacement can be used. Oh, and almond milk pancakes are delicious. I actually made almond milk buttermilk and used that for the liquid in the recipe.

Here's what we did this last week.....I guess I did cook a few things.
The one meal made by me.
Boy #2 made Ramen
His bowl.
Mine.
The colors are so bright when you dye the white of the egg...a Pinterest idea. We made deviled eggs with them.
MONDAY: Hamburgers, grilled broccoli, couscous.
TUESDAY: Baked ham, steamed veggies, scalloped potatoes.
WEDNESDAY: Fettucine Alfredo with chicken and chipotle peppers, garlic bread. (I'm going to use almond milk although I will be eating a little butter in the sauce)
THURSDAY: Enchiladas or Queso Fundido
FRIDAY: YOYO
Have a great week!
