This is a post about guilt; specifically food I feed to my kids and myself about which I feel a lot of guilt. Hopefully we will end on a happier note. I know topics like this are a big no-no for bloggers. We must keep everyone happy! Sorry, but without the guilt.
Pizza Guilt. Homemade Macaroni and Cheese guilt. Boxed Macaroni and Cheese guilt. Top Ramen guilt. Hot dog guilt. Orange chicken, breaded and fried, guilt. Cheese sticks. High sugar yogurt. Sweet cereal. Semi-sweet cereal. Fried scones. Peanut butter on pancakes, and even worse on waffles. Bread products made only with white flour. Anything with butter. Cookies, cakes, candy, pies, ice cream -- GUILT.
Surprisingly, I don't have the same amount of guilt for ice cream cones that I do for a bowl of ice cream. Weird.
These are not the only foods I offer my children, but they are the ones I feel guilty about.
Now, as a balancing portion to this guilt post, I will try to remember what I offered to our family in the way of food and meals yesterday:
Breakfast: Maple muffins and quinoa breakfast porridge with strawberries and bananas.
Lunch: Carrot sticks, hummus, pears, tortilla chips and salsa, cheese stick, cheese Goldfish crackers.
Dinner: Vegetable Gumbo soup, turkey/oatmeal burgers, carrot-ginger beverage.
Treat for FHE: fresh pineapple.
Not too bad! Hurray for me, and our whole family!
