Here's my review of last week's menu . . .

If you're making hash browns, the best veggie choice in my opinion is sweet potatoes but for oven baked fries, it's butternut squash. Both choices are healthier than the standard white potato so you can't go wrong.

The crustless quiche was a hit so from now on, that will be a good place to eliminate grains/carbs. I ended up adding sundried tomatoes to the recipe which made it quite delicious.

Grain free waffles and bread using coconut flour are a no go in the future. Neither had the right texture and weren't very tasty. However, I was able to crumble the coconut bread in some pure coconut milk and it tasted like cake - yummy!

The home made chips didn't really come out crispy like chips. So, although I liked them, I'll probably just called it roasted veggies in the future. The seasoning combo is a keeper though.

Salmon cakes with lemon caper sauce, spaghetti squash bake, and zesty salsa chicken were all hits though the chicken was a little too spicy for Blake.

And lastly, the coconut milk ice cream was delicious and I didn't feel bad eating two bowls of it because it's natural and super healthy!
