Low-Income Nutrition

Some of the most common meals in our home this summer have been:

-a big bowl of hummus with cucumbers, carrots, and rice crackers/corn tortilla chips
-potato patties with salmon or basa filets and vegetables
-fishcakes (Chef loves making these, and usually does up 9 for each of us!) with salad and fresh fruit slices
-chicken/cucumber mix on lettuce wraps with fried potatoes
-salmon or basa filets with mashed potatoes and vegetables
-salad rolls with soup
-rice fusilli with tomato/carrot sauce and herbs
-vegetarian chili
-homemade soup with rice crackers
-various "everything in 'em" salads

Breakfasts
-fresh fruit, boiled egg, rice cake with jelly
-cornmeal on its own or with spice toppings and/or fruit
-cold cereal with homemade almond milk
-breakfast smoothie
-rice cracker mini pancakes

Our most common snacks are leftovers, air-popped popcorn, fresh fruit, and sometimes tortilla chips. Occasionally we make gfcf brownies, gfcf cookies, or potato candy.

I usually purchase blueberry juice and tomato juice as well.

We enjoy cooking, and almost everything we eat is homemade. We employ a gluten-free, casein-free diet, but we rarely buy any packaged gfcf products.
