Weekly Menu Plan: Grain Free

We are still grain free, but I am re-introducing lentils into our diet this week. We’ll see how everyone handles them. I am also going to try to get on top of making some sort of fermented vegetable every week so that I don’t run out. Perhaps this will spur me on to finally brew my own kombucha.

It’s Monday and I am already quite behind in keeping up in the kitchen this week. I have been falling into a bit of a breakfast rut lately, but am hoping to break out of it soon.

You’ll probably be able to tell that I got a good deal on sweet potatoes this week for my carb eaters.
