Navajo, Sam got to come home today. 
She took a 4 hour nap as soon as she got here.
I'm getting some of the recipes from an e book I ordered called simply "The Paleo Cookbook", some from Mark's Daily Apple, some just from searching on line in different food blogs etc. The beet soup recipe came from Country Living Magazine. Sam had to eat hospital food for two days and I wanted to get a really healthy soup into her ASAP.
I added chipotle seasoning to the "adult" version of the soup. It made it even better.
Okiegirl, did I mention that goat's milk anything (and sheep's milk too) is supposed to be very easy to digest for most people? I got the goat cheese stuffed peppers recipe off the bag the peppers came in.

MAN! You come up with some good meals. I'm jealous!
I generally don't get home from work until around 7:30 or so, so have to whip something quick up for the kiddos and even though it is whole foods cooked by me, sometimes we have some interesting (blah) meals! HA!
I tried the once a month cooking once and it did help during the week to just reheat something but that one FULL day of cooking just about did me in.
I'm going to copy down most of the meals you have listed here and steal them for myself and the kids (and you can't stop me! BWAHAHAHAA!!!).
Sam still doing well?

She is doing great, thanks for asking!
Navajo, I understand totally the blah-ness of foods. I was getting sick of my old standbys as well. I have done some searching for more flavorful dishes lately. Do you have a crock pot? I found this great blog http://www.lifeasaplate.com/2011/03/24/thai-beef-lettuce-wraps/ with some crock pot recipes for us. Tonight I'm making the thai beef lettuce wraps, tomorrow I'm going to make her shredded chicken stuffed bell peppers. I've actually found some great food blogs (for folks eating this way) on facebook. I will share every one of them.

Only have a minute here, but wanted to say I am REALLY glad Sam is bouncing back so quickly!big brown horse said:She is doing great, thanks for asking!

And yes, yes I DO have a crock pot (amd Am a crack pot!
) so will be checking out the blog when I get more time. Please DO share the other sites. We are getting sick of the old "quick" standard meals here! I noticed today that I have lost another notch in the belt (in the BAD direction) so am determined to get this under control!
I really appreciate your help especially know some of the other "stuff" you're dealing with.
Take care!
Tom
