helping a sister out

My least favorite thing in my day is figuring out what to make for dinner (yes I know that is not a real problem) I usually plan a week out so I can stick to budget and only have to rack my brain one day a week. So my friends Im sharing with you 3 weeks of meals, pick out whatever you like spice up your own life with some change :) Oh and Im sharing my homemade gummy recipe (they are high in protein, and collagen and are tasty!!

Enjoy


Monday: Beef Stroganoff  I dont eat wheat so I put this over a sweet potato or yam and make butter noodles for Brett.  (Make extra to freeze)

Tuesday: Grilled chicken: sautéed beets, carrots, and squash. and a salad ( cucumber, tomato, feta, olives, pepperoncini's, 1 lemon squeezed, salt and pepper)

Wednesday: Yam hash recipe at bottom of page

Thursday: Chicken Fajitas ( I make a slow cooker whole chicken the night before the left over chicken I use for another meal)

Friday: Burgers ( I always add liver and use lettuce instead of a bun) If im not lazy Ill make a salad (lettuce, cucumber, carrots, sun flower seeds, avocado oil, apple cider vinegar)

You now have 4 meals in the freezer for lazy days :)

Ok now for the gummies:

In a pot place 2.5 cups of juice (I used santa cruz organic apricot and mango)
Add 3 lemons juice (if you like sour add a 4th one)

Stir till warm not boiling you just need it warm enough to add the gelatin
Stir in half a cup of great lakes gelatin ( I use that one because it comes from grass fed cows and is SUPER good for you) Add a little bit at a time
I put mine in the blender just to make sure there are no lumps
Poor onto parchment paper on a cookie sheet
place in fridge till  set

ENJOY :)
