Days 127 through 131

What a week this has been!  It started on Monday with a migrating kidney stone...it didn't pass but has stopped moving.  So it's just in there like a ticking time bomb...good times!  Then 3 of us had Wellness visits this week.  Today my niece is in the hospital in labor!  Just a crazy hectic week!  I did manage to make lunch every day though!

Tuesday she had lunchmeat sushi, salami/cheese flower and grapes.

Wednesday she had peanut butter/nutella sandwich, yogurt with strawberries, cheese stick and grapes.

Thursday she had a lunchable, ham and bologna stars, bagel slices with cream cheese, carrots, grapes with cranberry cheddar cheese.

Last but not least today she has chicken salad pockets, grapes, cheese sticks and some cubed up Lara bar.

Day 126

D's lunch today is champagne grapes, strawberries, chicken/apple sausage and some cubes of cheese pizza.

I don't usually include her afternoon snack in my post but I was pretty excited about how it turned out!  I printed out a picture of hello kitty 1.5 in. by 2in. and just traced it with a tooth pick!

Day 121

Pizza strip/turkey pepperoni sprinkled on top, cheese stick, grapes and mini "caramel" apples that D, A and I made using this recipe from Family Fun.

Day 118

This hamburger box really holds a lot of food, too much food for D's appetite.  There is a thin layer that I didn't even put anything in.  So the bottom bun has chicken/cheese quesadilla with a small cup of salsa, the lettuce layer has some grapes and a brownie. 

Recipe

I adapted this recipe from Vocalpoint for Breakfast Cookies.

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour or whole grain pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup Apple sauce
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup agave syrup
 2 medium eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons fat-free milk
1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
2 T boiled cider
 2 1/4 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup  raisins
2T Chia Seeds
 2 scoops chocolate Whey Crisps

Preheat the oven to 350.  Lightly grease a 9x13 inch pan.

Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl.  In a seperate bowl mix all the wet ingredients until combined.  Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until well combined.  Pour into pan and spread into an even layer.  Bake for 19-23 minutes or until a tooth pick insterted in the center comes out clean.  Allow to cool and cut into granola bar sized pieces.
