Organic Meal Ideas
I thought I would post some of my meal ideas here for those interested in serving nutritious Organic food in their daycare. I find that 90% of the things I serve I can buy premade but some things need to be made from scratch. I make the pizza crust from scratch using a normal recipe but just using organic ingredients. Most everything is organic so I won't write out the word organic over and over :) Here in Canada our dairy isn't infused with hormones so I don't buy organic dairy but do use a lot of dairy alternatives.
I don't serve breakfast (my kids come too late). Lunch Kamut or brown rice noodles and pasta sauce black bean pizza (crust, sauce, beans, veggies and Daiya non-dairy cheese/regular cheese) Pita, hummus and veggies Grilled cheese and tomato soup Chicken and rice or kamut noodles Cheese, black bean and pepper quesadillas I serve fruit after every meal as dessert Snack Banana rollups (banana, peanut butter and tortilla rolled up and sliced) Homemade frozen yogurt (frozen strawberries or blueberries, yogurt, honey and a little bit of milk in a food processor) Applesauce (easy to make your own as well with apples, cinnamon in a processor) *apples are bad for pesticides so I peel all apples, even organic* Veggies and hummus Smoothie (frozen berries, almond milk, flax oil, brown rice protein powder, probiotics) *berries HAVE to be organic as they also contain a ton of pesticides. Strawberries being the worst* Fig bars (Barbara's brand) Cereal bars (Barbara's brand) Muffins This is all I can think of right now! Let me know if you want specific info about any of it. I buy most of this stuff in a natural food store. |
I made hummus the other day for my dck's and all but one ate it right up! :) I love hummus!

Ariana, thanks sooo much! If you think of other things, please keep posting them on here cause I will keep looking for updates. I love the banana wrapped in the tortilla idea.
