Day One hundred and thirty-seven

Breakfast: Pink pancakes (whole grains, beet puree, shredded apple, and strawberries; Recipe: Deceptively Delicious).


Pink pancakes with a drizzle of chocolate or maple syrup. Normally we would have a protein with pancakes such as eggs, but these have ricotta in them so they were okay to stand alone. I let my kids use a drizzle of chocolate on these, they were so tickled to have "strawberries and chocolate" for breakfast, and didn't care that they also had pureed beets. Loved it.
Dinner: At my parents house, so no pics here.

Day One hundred and thirty-three

Snow day project: Cotton ball snowmen and gingerbread men (Recipe: Kid Concoctions. We didn't eat these, but the dough did need to be cooked on the stove, so it's fair that they get to share the spotlight w/our other food of the day.


Breakfast: Oatmeal with strawberries and blueberries (frozen), drizzled with a little maple syrup and cinnamon.

Dinner: Alien green ravioli (homemade ravioli with edamame and light cream filling; Recipe: Rachel Ray) with broccoli, and bananas.

Day Ninety

Breakfast: Oatmeal with maple syrup, brown sugar, and diced apples. Unfortunately... I had my camera right on the table but forgot to take a picture until we finished eating. Oops.





Lunch: Pizza. I'm reading "Eat Pray Love," and after the author's description of the best pizza in Italy, I had to have some, too. Usually I make the dough in the bread machine, but today I did it by hand. Surprisingly, it was much more pliable.
