Day Three hundred and thirty-three

Breakfast: Spinach mango strawberry smoothies (recipe: Cooking Light).   We refer to these as "Martian smoothies"

Pizza (dough recipe: Gluten-free on a shoestring).

Dinner: Pizza, steamed broccoli, and grapes.

Chocolate chip cookies.  Trying out a new cookie recipe, this one is from Robin Ryberg, who has a bunch of neat GF cookbooks.

Sandwich bread.  Using the all-purpose flour blend I could not live without, this bread recipe makes our current go-to loaf.

Lunch for tomorrow: Turkey on above sandwich bread, apple, fresh mozzarella cheese, cucumbers, and a chocolate chip cookie.  Morning snack in the separate container- ants on a log (PB and raisins on celery).

Day Three hundred and fifteen

Pizza dough, rising (recipe: Gluten-free on a shoestring).  This was our second attempt at gluten-free pizza, and we did like the crust a little better. The consistency of the dough was more similar to regular dough than the almond flour.

Pizza (sauce with butternut squash puree).

Dinner: Gluten-free pizza, salad, and fresh strawberries.

Gluten-free sandwich bread (recipe: Gluten-free on a shoestring).

Day One hundred and forty-six

Dinner: Pizza (Sam's club), mixed vegetables, and fresh strawberries. A quick dinner!

Day One hundred and twenty-eight

Dinner: Pizza, steamed vegetables, and fresh cantaloupe. We were supposed to have leftovers tonight, but no one was in the mood for boring leftovers on a Friday evening. So, my husband ordered pizza, and we all loved him for it!!

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.

Pizza: (after)

Day Fifty-nine

Granola (recipe: Fix, Freeze, Feast). The last time I made this granola, I froze a few bags for the freezer. All I had to do today was bake it for 30 mins, and voila.

Dinner: Pizza with broccoli, and salad.

Day Forty-one

Dinner: Movie night, which means Pizza (from Sam's club- I cheated!) but we topped it with broccoli and turkey meatballs. This was supposed to be a vegetarian night, but someone (ahem, husband) "needed" meat.

Day Fifteen

Breakfast: Whole wheat banana sweet potato waffles (recipe: Sneaky Chef) and fruit salad.

Dinner: Pizza (from Sam's Club) enhanced with fresh broccoli and mushrooms, a side salad (thanks to Karen S. for the cucumber from her garden!!), and sliced apples.

Dessert: White chocolate cranberry oatmeal cookies (recipe: Annabel Karmel). My daughter wanted to have a "birthday party" for her hedgehog puppet.
