I have meals ready in bulk in the freezer for convenience (of course by the end of this week, i'll have enough variety and enough meals for the whole month of october lol)
I always keep eggs handy, bell peppers, mushrooms and big lettuce leafs for a quick lettuce wraps. Although in just about a week, I'm going to have a crazy amount of Turkey leftovers lol, so were going to have a lot of turkey this month lol.

is the canned pumpkin good with just cinnamon? i've been tempted to try that for breakfast.

i just made a big pot of butternut and pumpkin squash soup that I plan on having for lunches this week.

Yeah, I always have boiled eggs, home made turkey jerky and/or all natural ham, and canned sardines, tuna and wild salmon on hand (when I have to have a protein fix FAST). To add to this, there are soaked, dehydrated and frozen nuts, raw organic cheese, coconut milk and creamed coconut (when I want tea with sweets). Finally there is always fresh cabbage, sea salt and balsamic vinegar when I need a salty crunch.

My house is stuffed with emergency foods for every craving and occasion!.

These ideas are great! I often make the boiled eggs and chicken breasts - they are easy to grab as needed. I also relied on nuts A LOT last time - maybe more then I should have but it worked out ok. I always have pre-washed salad greens in the fridge and try to have some protein that is cooked already, along with homemade salad dressing (olive oil and lemon juice with various spices). I also really love raspberries/blueberries so I try to keep those on hand for any sweet tooth cravings.

I should try making egg muffins (basically eggs with veggies) - it is much more fun then just eggs!

Don't know re: Lara bars but of you find out which one/s let us know!

This is my newest go to meal - I eat it at least once a week right now. So easy, filling, and good!

Now that I have a moment, I can maybe list our staple meals. I am kindda on the rails, because of what we load in the freezer from the farms and whole sale & don't want to eat the same thing day in/day out.

Our staples are:
Meatzzas, meatballs or burgers. Made with the same dairy free, bread free meat 'dough'. Usually I do one thing one night, and the other thing the next night from the same batch of meat 'dough'. Until we run out of ground beef and pork portions of our cow/pig

Borscht. I make a huge pot of stock from beef soup bones, and then a huge pot of borscht and everyone is happy as it gets better when it ages.

Pork Roast. We got gazillion shoulder, leg, hocks etc pieces of pork with out pig, so making a crackling topped roast is pretty easy.

Roast chickens. I dry roast two at a time, and the whole family digs in with glee.

Whole wild salmon. My daughter doesn't eat fish unless it is a whole fish. When sockeye was on sale in season I loaded up a bunch of fishes into the freezer, so we are still making a huge baked salmon every two weeks or so (I wrap the fish in parchment).

Shrimp skewers. My kiddo loves nothing more than baby tomato and shrimp skewers.

While we have beef roasts, I make a slow-cooker beef roast all the time.

Curried liver. I love liver. We get tons with both pork and beef. My husband is okay with a curry that has liver.

Roasted turkey drumsticks. I use turkey breast for home made jerky, the rest of it for bone broth, and the drumsticks I roast separately because my kiddo LOVES those. Dino bones!

Squasheroni and cheese. My child can eat that every day and goes berserk whenever she sees a spaghetti squash in the store. Lately she was asking me to bake something in a pumpkin or a squash 'as in a bowl'. I am getting to it, honest.

Side staples: fresh salsa; steamed veggie mix; asparagus (unfortunately, you can't turn your back on that one, because the kiddo goes through a pound of it in 5 min) ; Brussels sprouts roasted with drippings, OMG! Same for fresh cabbage, steamed and then roasted with butter or drippings; roast eggplant or zucchini chips. For my folks I love making roast root veggies in drippings from pork or chicken or beef - whatever is accumulated in the bottom of the broiler pan!

In the past three weeks we all developed an addiction to baked brie with herbs and sun-dried tomatoes and sunflower seeds. Well, last time it was camambert. Basically the fanciest soft cheese on sale. So, Saturday night dinner is baked cheese with crudites. Mom's easy night.

Every weekend I make a double-batch of something... soup, chili, etc. and then I freeze in one cup portions. I've been eating Paleo/Primal since mid-July so everything I have in my freezer is already Whole30 compliant. Perfect for when I don't plan. I also ALWAYS have avocados on hand and frozen vegetables. Avocados go great with soooo many things (avocado + tuna; avocado + steak + eggs; avocado + chili; avocado + chicken).

Yes, I am an avocado fanatic as well - I eat at least one a day an still not sick of 'em. My daughter loves them too!
