A New Diet for the Crouts

Whole Foods? This is the food I am starting to prepare for our family. I am not being as hard core on the kid's diet since one of them is so picky already and I just need him to eat, but I am adding or replacing certain things that are better for them. As for me and Dan (more me than Dan), I am trying to eat no Gluten or even no grains most of the time). It is all about natural food that is unprocessed- lots of veggies, fruit and protein (organic, cage and hormone free). Below is my shopping cart for the week. I just had to take a picture- it was so fresh. I did buy some whole grain items for the kids!!
 I am wrapping my mind around cooking for my picky family and still love a quick meal. In comes the juicer!! I fill the container with lots of dark green lettuce (kale or spinach), fruit, nuts, flax seed and water and what do you get- a green machine drink. They are growing on me, but Dan is not a fan (hence the picture below). Dan is not a fan of veggies. Now to be fair, there are a handful that he will gladly eat, but I am adding more than he ever dreamed of having. We are cutting out refined sugars and flours. My man loves his cookies and snacks so we are trying to be creative. I hope we can keep it up because I already feel better. Happy Eating!!
