School started last week and I’ve been putting some miles on the Mom mobile. The farmers’ market is packed with produce and the only trouble I have is finding time to use up all the bounty.
Our market has really grown this year with more booths and a wider variety of produce and other goodies.
I couldn’t choose just one photo from my weekly shopping trip.
So you get to see all the signs of the end of summer harvest and the approach of autumn.
I see a lot of this on my drive to and from school.
And now on to the menus. I am posting last week’s too. I made last week’s up as I went along because the schedule was unpredictable with two athletes running back and forth to practice and games.
Back to School Week Menu
Spaghetti and Meat Sauce, salad- made by Dad and ready for us when we returned from Zoombezi Bay.
Fried Rice with Tofu
Turkey Cutlets, Risotto, Steamed Veggies
Mexican Lasagna, tossed salad
Turkey Potpie made with leftover turkey cutlets
Pizza night with a Schar Bread Mix crust. Thumbs up all around for the crust.

Baking-Pamela’s Bread mix for sandwich rolls. I used the bagel recipe, but no holes and no boiling. Very good.

Grilled Bison Burgers, fries
Pizza night
Mexican casserole with green sauce

Sea at the Book of Yum is hosting this week with a theme of eggplant. Last time I tried eggplant, I didn’t get a lot of enthusiasm from the family, so I’ll skip it this week.Laura at the Organizing Junkie has more menu plans, some are gluten free or easily adaptable recipes.
Thanks to Cheryl for being the headquarters for the Gluten Free Menu Swap. You can find the rules and themes here.
Gorgeous pics!! The menu is great, too.
You've sparked my interest in Gluten-free beer….does it stand in the taste department to regular beer?
Hey Jenny -Thanks for stopping by.
Mac-Green's is pretty good. Bard's Tale is too. Never, ever will be my beloved Guinness, but good for an occasional treat.
And thanks for posting the CORN FIELD! I actually miss those, now that I'm away…
