When we moved to our new apartment (ALMOST A YEAR AGO) I forced recycling upon our home which at first was meet with much resentment but now is more of habit and no so much work. Now I am working on food.
Last week I filled our home with lots of fresh foods and have been trying to weed out some of the packaged foods that zach and I tend to lean on. The one thing I noticed.. I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO ATE THE FOOD!!
So now THIS week I have made a menu that I VOW to follow and prepare food everyday this week.. WITH fresh veggies, home cooked food, and only a few meals with packaged foods.. As with this introduction today zach says "What's for dinner" I say "Didn't you look at the menu?" of course you can guess the next response..... So I say we are having pork chops and you know the first thing he asks for.. MAc and cheese!?!? Mac and cheese OVER my home made mash potatoes with homemade gravy and salad!?!?!
So We'll see how this goes.. MY other food introduction.. shh.. A meatless meal!! I have always been debating between vegetarian and carnivore but found it challenging to give up chicken.. so i have decided at lease once a week we will have a meatless meal.. THis week: bean chili.. I'll update you on how THAT goes.. considering.. that fresh veggies hasn't been a hit!!

Haha...good luck Amanda! I have an awesome recipe for tortilla bean casserole if you ever want to try it out. It's been a huge hit with Michael and I love it, too! Let me know if you'd like the recipe. It's really yummy and quite easy to make.
