GN, You always make me feel so inadequate with your week so planned out and such complete and wonderful meals.  So, i assume your son(s) eat all these things?  Sigh.  Envious.

I made a great quinoa salad, with chopped armenian cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, red onion, and red sweet peppers.  Dressing was lemon, olive oil, garlic and salt and pepper.  Tossed it before serving with kalamata olives and a little feta(and some leftover grilled chicken a couple fo times), and have had that for 2 lunches and 2 dinners this week, lol!  Dh has it sans the olives and feta. 

And I also had enough to give a generous serving to my friend today.  It was so yummy and good for the hot days, and economical and healthful. 

Gluten free for those who need that, egg and nut free, and dairy free if you skip the feta.  Soy and shellfish free too.  A good allergy friendly recipe wrt to most of the top 8.

OMG, that salad sounds heavenly.  Except tonight's salad made my mouth so itchy!  Gotta lay off the salads for awhile.

Keep in mind my "baby" is 18!  I assure you he didn't e at everything when he was younger.  Don't worry, your kiddoes will get there.   ;)

Uh-oh!  What about salad gives you the itchies?

I think honey might be a problem for me.  Thinking I get chapped, cracked lips after a dribble a smidge on my plain greek yogurt.  Need to run another test.
