My meals might look a bit similar in this post because I batch cooked a few things, so my plate is often filled with the same foods, but I try to make each meal a little different so that I don't get bored.
Shredded white sweet potato hash browns and a chive omelette.

Salad with chicken and avocado and homemade honey mustard poppy seed dressing.

This dinner was so full of brightly veggie colors, I couldn't resist playing with my food a little. Grass fed, home grown beef, spinach, onion, beets, carrot, cabbage, sweet potatoe, and cauli puree.

Picnic lunch! We've been going to all the local beaches lately, for dinner picnic or Saturday afternoons.  This picnic had berries, carrots, fruit, cheese, GF crackers, salami, plantain chips, some deli fried chicken and sourdough bread with butter.                                              

Breakfast of eggs with Kerrygold cheese, fried sweet potatoes with ketchup, carrot juice and tea.

Fried eggs with hashbrowns and beets and spinach.

Beets, ground beef, sweet potatoes and spinach, sauteed together.

Dinnertime! Fresh, local new potatoes, steamer and then broiled with butter. Oven fried chicken, with GF flour and spices. Broccoli. Sourdough bread. I wanted to eat the bread so bad....I had one bite with butter and it was😍 so chewy and crunchy. Traditional sourdough bread is supposed to be more tolerable than regular bread, due to fermentation breaking down some of the gluten and making it easier to digest. This one is from Costco and I think it's decent (ingredients are acceptable) but no sure how long the started is aged so I don't go crazy on it. Besides, that in bite is often quite satisfying and savored more than a whole piece would be anyway.

Not very photogenic, but delicious- stir fried chicken and veg with cashews and a pad Thai type sauce. I have been buying the bags of coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots) and using them to make quick meals. Just add some meat (chicken, ground beef) and season, and you have a meal. You can throw in more veg like zucchini or spinach or other greens, or broccoli or riced cauliflower. Season simply with salt and pepper, add garlic and onion powder, dried dill, parsley if desired. For Thai flavor, I use fish sauce, coconut aminos (soy sauce replacement), lime juice, tamarind paste/concentrate, almond butter, cayenne pepper, sometimes coconut sugar or honey.

Lovely dinner salad with green leaf lettuce from local stand, Hemplers bacon, Kerrygold cheese, and homemade honey mustard poppy seed dressing.

Breakfast, eggs with cheese and heavy on the greens. Avocado on the side and tea.
