Things we talked about with the kids this week was what they missed most. We hoped we could find new recipes to accommodate for what we felt was getting left out or being craved. Most common was quick foods such as PB&J sandwiches, Breakfast Cereal, Cow's Milk and Cheese.
*We learned that cheese can be addicting for a good, scientific reason!
*We decided the kids could try cow's milk again if they really didn't enjoy Almond Milk.
*We found a recipe for Cinnamon Apple Cereal that was compliant to Whole30.
*Our Costco finally stocked Almond Butter at a price we could afford to use regularily.
Our Whole Family Whole30 Meal Plan (here) gave me good ideas for our fourth week. I found most of the recipes using Pinterest and my own recipes. Yet, finally at a point where I'm making my own versions or creating without looking at the recipe. [Print Week 4 Menu Here]
