Today’s meal ideas came from my kids mouths themselves.  I asked each one what their favorite foods were to compile a week of their favorite meals.  Then I got online to research “healthier versions” of their favorite foods.  It’s almost embarrassing  how they came up with typical kid junk-fare. I remind them they are supposed to be the “Super Healthy Kids”.  They are supposed to be an example to children all over the world that they love to eat healthy foods.”  Nate, my 11 year old smart aleck, said, “Tell your readers my favorite breakfast food is candy.”  

So, in purple is what my kids asked for, and below it, what we are really going to eat.  I love being the mom!

At least they didn’t suggest candy for EVERY meal!

My kids love breakfast cereal. It’s so hard to find kinds that are sweet enough for them and without the yucky stuff. Any ideas for homemade cereals?

Candy for breakfast? I don’t think my kids would like the Sloppy Lentils. It is so hard to find recipes everyone likes.
