Since we are a real food house, the only thing we didn’t have to worry about is what we were going to eat all week. Right? Wrong! I so wish this was true. If I was really on the ball, I would have had plenty of bone broth in the freezer and lots of quick and easy meals ready to go. The problem is…………….all of the illness and broken bones came before I had a chance to go to the grocery store. I barely had any milk in the house.
It was not a wonderful clean eating week. I bought soup from a local restaurant more than once last week. Boy, was that stuff salty! It reminded me how much better homemade is in both taste and nutrition. However, my daughter was able to keep it down which kept her out of the hospital. That was a definite win. We also ate my favorite quick meal which is breakfast for dinner. We had plenty of nuts and raisins in the house so that was the majority of our snacks. Smoothies turned into a requested treat to fix all our ailments. There is nothing like a frozen treat to make everything feel better!
