Weekly Menu (8/12/12-8/18/12)

This week in our half of the Bountiful Basket (I share with my brother) we got:

• lettuce
• tucsan kale
• tomatoes
• celery
• mushrooms
• green peppers
• mangos
• galia melon
• bananas 

I also got an order of mangos (4kg, which was about 14 mangos...which I split with my brother) and the guacamole add on pack which had:

• avocados
• green onions
• yellow onions
• garlic
• cilantro
• limes
• jalapenos
• chipotle peppers

I also have grapes, cantaloupe, corn on the cob, and carrots to supplement the basket.

This week for breakfast: I've replenished my muffin stock, so we have Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins, Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins, and Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins to choose from, one-eyed sandwiches, fresh fruit, and cereal for the kids; and smoothies, water kefir with fruit puree, hard boiled eggs, and baked oatmeal for me.

This week for lunches: The boys are taken care of at their sitters' house. I plan on eating leftovers, I also have green peppers, carrots, mushrooms, celery, and tomatoes with hummus everyday and a glass of water kefir with fruit puree (a good portion of my mangos and cherries will go to that). My husband always has sandwiches, chips, and a banana in his lunch (boring, but that's what he likes).
