Week 4 What We Ate

Sunday — Breakfast was coffee and cheerios.  Lunch was GF chicken nuggets, tater tots, and cheese sticks.  Supper was beef tips in gravy, yellow rice, and string beans.  Yes, that was different than the menu, but my husband wasn’t at home.  We went with my usual rules of not taking anythign away from other meals.  
Monday 
The flu has hit our house or a flu like something.  I was up and down all last night with sick stomach, fever, chills, bodyaches, the works.  My daughter is going okay.  Today I have lived on dry cereal.  Even plain rice and things like that haven’t stayed down.

She had eggs, toast, and bacon.  I was asleep during lunch time, and I think she grabbed something quick from the pantry.  For supper, I heated up the rice, baked some chicken, and heated up some chickpeas.  A bland looking plate.  I thought I was feeling better, and it all sounded good to me.  Big mistake!


 Tuesday I was feeling a little better when I woke up.

Sorry about sideways photo.
I made my daughter a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich.
I had an egg and a piece of bacon.
Today was her day on campus and she ate there.  
I had half a GF tortilla with sunbutter.
By mid afternoon my head was throbbing again, but I wasn’t down.
For supper I made mac and cheese (from the menu) and my duaghter had BBQ pork with hers.
I ate a bit only to discover the pounding headache is what seems to be killing my stomach.
Ugh!


Wednesday
I woke up feeling marginally better.
My daughter ate cereal, and I opted to not eat.
Lunch was scrounge through the refrigerator.
By midday I was feeling better, but didn’t want what was on the menu.
Since it was the first time I was really hungry in days I decided to just go with it.
I fixed turkey breast filets, rice, green beans, gravy, and opened beets.
Then I cooked a yellow cake to serve with peaches.


It was all very good!

Thursday
I feel mostly human today!
Breakfast was waffles, eggs, and bacon.
Lunch was a protein shake for me, because I spent the day working on a research paper.
Supper was a “clean out fridge meal.”

Friday
Nobody wanted to really eat this morning.  
I had coffee and my daughter had some cereal.
Lunch was a protein shake for me, and my daughter ate ham biscuits.
Supper was supposed to be hamburger steak with gravy, but once again it didn’t work out where my husband could come home.
We took a vote and opted to just have burgers instead.


Saturday 
Breakfast — we made a batch of blueberry waffles and I had a protein shake.

Lunch was the two leftover burgers.
Supper was supposed to be quiche.
We kind of hand unassembled quiche.
We just cooked our eggs and bacon and had them with toast.

All in all I am pretty pleased with how the week went.  
Despite feeling horrible and switching some things around we did not pick anything up.
We stuck to items we had and tried to stick to the idea behind the menu.
