    Chicken and guacamole tacos! With a side of rice. :)

    MMMMMMMMMMMMMM guacamole!!! That is one of my fave foods that no one else in the house eats. SO I DON'T HAVE TO SHARE! :tongue:

    Tonight is a mexican deer burrito. Its a variation of mexican crockpot chicken, but I used deer tenderloin instead. Roll it in a taco shell, cover with a sprinkle of cheese, ff sour cream, lettuce and chopped tomatoes. I add jalapenos to mine and the kids it i mild.

    luckily my kids eat must about anything.

    I am entertaining having some pasta but I will most likely have fish or chicken with brown rice and mushrooms. Not too fancy.

    Tonight is 'Salad Night' but that doesn't mean we're skimping on flavor. Between the nuts, cheese, and fruit, this salad is very well balanced, not to mention gorgeous to look at.

    Raspberry, Spinach, and Goat Cheese Salad
    Baby spinach
    Goat cheese crumbles (feta works well too)
    Toasted almonds or pecans
    Raspberries (normally strawberries but none looked good in the store)
    Thinly sliced red onion
    Store-bought Lite raspberry walnut vinaigrette (look for ken's steakhouse or newman's own versions)

    Im excited to get back into the swing of things and start cooking more healthy and satisfying meals (you guys would die over if I told you how my eating habits have been lately... Even my 5 yr old has noticed. "Mommy where's the vegetables?" I know, I know.. it was terrible.. -_- ) That was a wake up call for sure.. If my 5 yr old cares enough about eating the right things, then should I! Sooo tonight for dinner were having...

    Grilled Asparagus w/ Garlic & Basil Grilled Tomatoes and Grilled Chicken Breast in an Apricot sauce

    Taco salad! I don't need the chips or sour cream, just baked beans for the sauciness! Yumm - actually I just had it for lunch and made too much so it will be my dinner. Everyone else here at my house, can find some leftovers in the fridge.

    I would suggest offering along side something you know she likes, even if it is only two bites of the favorite item. Also, pairing new foods with something sweet often creates a pleasant association for the mouth/child, and helps. We used to have the '1, 2, 3, no thank you rule' at our house...after three bites you didn't have to eat anymore if you still didn't like it. If she doesn't like it this time, offer it again next time you have it. It can take up to 7 introductions of a new food for someone to acquire a taste for something (I think it is about 7!)
    Your dinner sounds awesome!
    We are having home made meatballs and sauce that were in the freezer from last time we made a big batch. I am going to make a nice salad with feta and balsamic dressing to go with it.

    Spaghetti Squash!
    I am a crazed lunatic about spaghetti & pasta.
    With spaghetti squash I can have some of the dishes I love with a fraction of the calories!

    Topped with a tomato, garlicy mixture & boca meatless ground meat.
