This week my focus is on keeping meals simple. We’ve got our normal stuff this week like school, sports and homework but I also have a kid home sick, my new meal plans will debut and I’m going out of town to the Food Allergy Bloggers Conference!
In order to keep things flowing as smoothly as possible I’ll focus on SIMPLE plant-based meals. I know, most of my recipes are already simple but these are going to be even easier, requiring no prep work and minimal effort.
Breakfast
This week we are eating cereal and oatmeal, well oatmeal may be a little optimistic.
Lunch
My kids will eat sandwiches this week with fruit and Gluten-Free Pretzels
Dinner
These are my goal meals. There is a good chance my kids will live on sandwiches and cereal. Is that wrong to admit? I have no idea what they will eat when I’m out of town, my hubby’s got it under control, I’m sure it will include lots of broccoli.
Gluten-Free Pasta with Marinara Sauce and a side salad.
Crock Pot Brown Rice and Broccoli Casserole (because it’s my hubby’s favorite).
Baked Potatoes and Steamed Veggies
Taco Soup I’ll use canned beans and veggies in this. I haven’t decided if I’ll use the Crock Pot or stove yet.
Each of these should make enough for dinners and leftover lunches.
I also held my Gluten-Free Lunch Box Class this weekend. It was a lot of fun and I’m looking forward to offering an online version in the future.
What does your week look like? Any big plans? What are you doing this week to keep it simple?

Very easy and simple. I like your meal ideas. I need to start doing something like this when I go back to work.
Tiffany I think having even a few meals planned takes the pressure off. You don’t have to dread the “what’s for dinner” when you have a plan.
Very true. My plans just never seem to work out, haha. It has been slightly easier since I started juicing because my daughter is fairly simple to feed. Although she needs a variety too. I am working on improving in the planning area.
