So food this weekend has been kind of random, until tonight when John cooked us an awesome meal. But yesterday was decent with leftover’s from Thursday night for breakfast, and for lunch I made a salmon salad: diced up leftover salmon patty, mixed with two chopped hard boiled eggs, two dill pickles, mayo, sunflower seeds, red wine vinager, dill, and pepper. By dinner time I had a sick 6 year old, a tired 2 year old, and 14 year old who volunteered to make breakfast for dinner. John was late at the office so Coby whipped up some gluten free pancakes from a mix from TJ’s, added blueberries, and he made his Paul Bunyan style. Not paleo, but it worked and what’s a kids life without pancakes (gluten free of course) every now and then.
John later brought home a turkey breast from Raley’s and a caesar salad which of course we threw out the croutons, as much as I would like to, this girl can’t live on pancakes for dinner, I gotta have my meat!!

Today for breakfast we had carnitas from TJ’s scrambled with eggs and frozen bell peppers and onion mix. We ate a late breakfast so kind of just snacked for lunch on salami and coleslaw. Dinner was awesome. John grilled rib-eye with a spice rub from Raley’s which is pictured. He also grilled bell peppers and I made my favorite sweet potatoes: pressure cook 4-5 peeled sweet potatoes for 14 minutes, melt a stick of organic butter, mix with mashed up potatoes along with a cup of applesauce, a bunch of cinnamon, a few shakes of dried ginger, and a small drizzle of honey. I don’t make these very often or I would live off of them…these are a weekend treat for sure…
