Life on the Windy Prairie

Feb. 20, 2006 - Gluten Free Weekly Menu

Lately I’ve been looking at online menu mailing services and have been quite frustrated in the search for easily adaptable for GF menus. I figure that there has to be more moms out there like me who are searching for this type of thing, so my plan is to post my meal plans and shopping lists. My whole family is not GF so if yours is, you’ll have to do some adjusting to the menus/lists. I usually only plan for 6 days’ worth of menus since we invariably have something come up. If nothing comes up that week, we just have leftovers/eat from the pantry. My dh and I don’t drink milk so whenever milk is listed, we generally have iced tea/water.

Day One:

Breakfast:

    • Baked Oatmeal (make a double batch for tomorrow)
    • ½ cup milk (or milk substitute that is acceptable or orange juice with calcium)
    • ½ cup applesauce

**Note: there is some disagreement in what I’ve read regarding oatmeal and the GF diet. I’ve found that I can eat McCann’s Oatmeal as it’s processed in a specialized facility. However, you will need to use your own judgement regarding oats and its effect on your family’s health.

Lunch:

    • Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (GF bread or WW bread, depending on needs)
    • Carrot sticks
    • Apple slices

Snack:

    • Broccoli with dip
