Gluten-Free Weekly Menu Plan, Week 3


Let's do this again, shall we?  I don't know about you, but it's working for my simple brain to share what I make every week and show little notes as things come up on the menu plan.  So here are this week's notes:

  1. I've been sharing our previous week's menu.  That way, as I pioneer through it, all the kinks are worked out so you don't have to face the same problems as I did.  I'm just that nice, I tell you.
  2. I have three other notes to share, but they're too long, so I've decided to make them into separate posts.  So stay tuned.  I can tell you this much: one note involves gluten-free sourdough, another has to do with snacks, and the third is my shopping routine.  Oh, the excitement.

  2. fun ideas. i make my own peanut butter, but i have never soaked the nuts first. didn't ever think to do this with peanuts. i cheat and buy the roasted peanuts from azure. also, i have never needed to add any oil when putting them in the food processor - the peanut butter gets perfectly smooth without the added oil.

    love all your fun meal ideas!

  3. Our jar of "PB Mayo" is almost empty so I'm excited to try Cheeseslave's PB recipe, thanks! I hope the roasting is the key for my little boy's taste buds. Organic PB is sooooo expensive!
