If you think this is your typical Meal Plan Monday you would be wrong, very wrong.
Last Friday we got the results back for my 2 year olds allergy test. I’ll give more details another time because there are way too many to discuss today. Meal Planning is now more important that ever, I have to be prepared, especially while I get a handle on all of these changes.
Breakfast
I usually opt for quick meals in the morning. Most of these will be made ahead of time.
- Rice Puff Cereal
- Gluten-free Apple Muffins
- Baked Sweet Potatoes
- Cinnamon-Raisin Breakfast Rice
- Breakfast Quinoa
Lunch
We like quick lunches too!
- Sunbutter and fruit sandwiches
- Gluten-free noodles with red sauce or faux cheese sauce
- Baked Potatoes with steamed broccoli
- Gluten-free Pasta & Veggie Salad
Snacks
- Smoothies
- Apples with Sunbutter
- Tortilla Chips with salsa, guacamole and faux cheese sauce
- gluten-free muffins
Dinner
- Broccoli and Rice Casserole
- Stir Fry
- Portobello Fajitas and Mexican Rice
- Italian Bake (one pot version)

- Cauliflower Steaks and green beans
Have you noticed any of our typical staples missing?
Speaking of missing, if you missed this weekends Virtual Vegan Potluck check it out. I “brought” this Lentil based Shepherd’s Pie that is gluten-free, soy-free and vegan. It also happens to be delicious!
Looks like no more almond butter – nut allergies??? And no oatmeal?? I wish you the best of luck as you navigate these new changes 🙂 and hope for good health for your whole family!
You are right on both counts! Thanks Clara!
Sounds like our household after three of us completed allergy testing. We were left with very little, but it definitely spurred my creativity!
We will do more testing, more extensive on the two year old and some on the rest of us eventually. I’m so thankful that I’m generally pretty creative with food. This is stretching me a bit though. 🙂
Oh no Holly…No oatmeal!!!
My daughter used to be allergic to oats and she outgrew that allergy. There is hope.
I’m hoping he out grows several of his allergies. I’m still wrapping h my head around it. As soon as I saw oats I thought of you.
That’s so crazy how so many kids have so many allergies! It’s mind boggling! Why oatmeal?? Even gluten free oats?
Yes, oats! We are hoping we can work to get his gut healed and maybe he can get over some of these.
