What do my kids eat? Day 6 of 7

Breakfast:

Yes, some sausage again this morning along with a leftover butternut squash pancake from yesterday.  The juice was a mixture of kale, carrot, and apple.

Morning Snack:

It's hard to not get caught up in the Valentine's Day spirit.  We dipped strawberries in some homemade chocolate while it was still warm, and then chilled them in the fridge.  Yummy!  Fairly guilt free though since the chocolate only has coconut oil, cocoa powder, and honey.

Lunch:

Simple lunch today with deviled eggs and a mini-salad.  Simply swap virgin olive oil for the mayonnaise and create delicious GAPS friendly deviled eggs.  The kids love them!


Afternoon Snack:

I had hungry kids for snack time today.  They each had two plates of sliced apples and Organic Sunbutter.

Dinner:

My kids call this "Saucy Meatballs".  We just pour some Mariana Sauce (Kirkland Marina Sauce which happens to be sugar free!) over my chia seed and beef meatballs (1.25 lbs. ground beef, 1/4 cup chia seeds, and 1 egg).  Add some peas and voila a simple meal.

Bedtime Snack:

Here's another of our favorite ways to incorporate calcium and vitamin D fortified coconut milk into our diet:

Pineapple Whip

The recipe calls for Almond milk, but I just substitute coconut milk because that's what we typically have on hand.  We buy frozen pineapple chunks at Costco which makes this a simple treat to whip up.
