menu plan monday

the kids are getting awfully squirrelly lately.  i'm pretty sure i can point most of that to a lack of schedule around here.  i am so reluctant about scheduling.   i like the easy breezy flow of just doing what needs to be done, when it needs to be done.   but i know i do better when i have some sort of schedule to go off of.  i do better, because the kids do better.  there is less bickering, more focus and more obedience.  and that's what i'm serious about- obeying the first time around.

after getting the kids down last night i had some time to sit and think, write a loose schedule for us and plan our menu.  it's easy this week because we'll be out of town for half the week.  but hey, it's a good place to start!

monday

B- soaked oatmeal (w/ coconut oil, coconut flakes, almonds and banana)

L- chicken salad (with my homemade mayonnaise!  it was so easy that i'm ashamed of myself for not making it before!) on pita w/ carrot sticks and strawberries

D- vegetarian tortilla soup (made stock last night), cornbread, salad

tuesday

B- eggs, green smoothie

L- bean, rice, swiss chard burritos (beans taken from mon. night soup)
