We all had banana bread (Trader Joes boxed mix which is really good) and blueberry-mango-raspberry-spinach smoothies. They were both a big hit with the kids!
The kids lunch- hard boiled eggs, purple grapes, quinoa with olive oil and sprinkles ("sprinkles" at our house are a combination of hemp seed, wheat germ, flaxseed meal, parmesan, and chia seeds) and a few sad little chips. Winnie likes all the sections in her plate filled, so I added a few pink chips in, which are the beet and onion from a bag of multicolored veggie and flaxseed tortilla chips. Rush could eat bucket upon bucket of this quinoa! His plate was identical, except for it is blue, and his chips were green.
I'm not uber-proud of this lunch, but it is what it is. I was craving comfort food, and this is all I could come up with. Ore-Ida Crispy Crowns tater tots with ketchup, steamed broccoli (the love affair continues), and sweet potato chunks with honey and walnuts, which is my new favorite side.
This is a Murphy family favorite. We have it once or twice a month- Missy sent me the recipe a long time ago. It's "lasagna" made out of frozen cheese ravioli, cheese, pasta sauce, and Italian seasonings. Delicious and completely not healthy! My broccoli is steamed with Italian seasoning and garlic. The bread is yummy whole wheat mini loaf from Schnucks bakery.
