hi crystal! it’s been a few months since i’ve noticed, but when did you move away from the gluten free, dairy free menu? (i may have missed some posts. i get busy blocks 🙂 did you guys get other answers to some health issues?
Yes, after extensive allergy testing, we are so grateful to have gotten to the root of some of the issues here and to be seeing major, major progress. We are so thankful!
ah, very happy for you! special cooking seems like it would be tough, though you seemed to take the challenge on well 🙂 (thankfully we don’t have any allergies at our home.) if you wrote a post on this, could you let pls. let me know where? if not, no worries. yay for you guys!
This week for our menu I will be making a few skillet dishes so I don’t have yo turn on the oven, a few crcok pot meals and one freezer meal.

Here is what I’ve got going this week:

We tried to incorporate meals that could be made into leftovers this week, working a lot of extra hours at work. It helps to have food prepared or be able to pull from the freezer.
Here’s our menu for the week:

Sunday–grilled hamburgers, corn on the cob, green salad
Monday-grilled marinated chicken breasts, steamed potatoes with fresh parsley, fried okra, grilled garlic bread
Tuesday-white sausage linguine, caesar salad, garlic bread
Wed-grilled BBQ pork chops, oven potato wedges, roasted zucchini and garlic, sliced tomatoes
Thursday-grilled smoked beef sausage, sauteed peppers and onions, cheese grits, cantaloupe, grilled garlic bread
Friday-skillet tuna noodle casserole, green salad, rolls
Saturday-homemade pizza, baby carrots and ranch dip

I am doing mostly simple meals this week and trying to get some extras made up for the freezer. I know when the kids head back to school next week, it will be so hectic. Here’s my menu plan for the week – http://healthykitchenguide.com/healthy-weekly-meal-plan-august-12-2012/
Here’s our plan for the week! http://craftygourmet.com/2012/08/13/my-weekly-menu-plan-812/
I’ve always been afraid I’ll blow up my mugs making those.
Here’s my menu. It’s a busy week & it’s my birthday!
http://www.momscupofambition.com/2012/08/this-weeks-menu.html
We’re having beans this week!
http://theprudenthomemakerblog.blogspot.com/2012/08/how-to-eat-beans-every-night.html
Was wondering if you had tasted the oatmeal packets yet? Were they just as good? Wondering because my kids love oatmeal, I tried the slow cooker oatmeal and it was a huge flop. So I thought I would try this. Thanks in advance for the feedback. 🙂
I’ve not made that particular recipe yet, but I plan to blog about it when I do.
Oh my I have totally seen that mug cake floating around on Pinterest but I am too scared to try it I’m afraid that one mug could turn into 4 or 5 mugs!! I am going to try to be somewhat “healthy” and stick to the Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Bread that is in our menu plan for the week :))

Looks like another great menu. I need to make the Quinoa salad again soon too. Love having meals in the freezer ready to bake.
I wanted to request some help. I have been put on a diet where I can only have 20 grams of carbs a day. I am at a loss for a menu and recipes. I would love to try to make homemade products but have to also keep it within my budget of $50/week for 3 people. Is this doable?–such a challenge! Thanks for all your help
Omlettes for any meal, salads for lunch with homemade dressings that are mostly vinegar and oil, or lemon juice,
Rosemary White Bean Soup would be a good lunch or dinner http://theprudenthomemaker.com/index.php/rosemary-white-bean-soup
Caprese salad is another one of our favorites

I just came across this recipe and I wonder if it would work for you?

Looking forward to your cake recipe. I tried once recently and it was yuck!
Here’s our menu this week. Ours is primarily composed of groceries from Aldi since we’re trying to shop there more and save.

Here’s our plan! I’m not going to be using the oven this week–it’s too hot! But we’ll be using the crockpot, our bread maker, and the grill outside! 🙂

I’m now into my 2nd trimester of pregnancy and finally feel like cooking again! Such a nice feeling 🙂
The crock pot cake looks amazing!!! It’s been so hot recently, that would be the perfect dessert recipe!

I just bought Quinoa last week at the store and forgot about it when I did this weeks menu. That recipe sounds great. That may make it in next week.
Can’t wait for the mug cake recipe! It looks delicious. I made your Blueberry Cobbler and loved it.
