Going gluten free

I've decided to go gluten free. This shocked me when I first decided and I panicked, "what will I eat?" I then realized that I was being very dramatic and I actually eat mostly non gluten foods already and will just have to learn how to make some modifications to my daily menu. Also Gluten free is not the ultimate ending, I am hoping to go Gluten, dairy, sugar free possibly Paleo eventually. I just didn't think I could do it all at once and continue taking care of and nursing a one year old. I'm doing this for health reasons after years of feeling terrible with Hashimotos and endometriosis I think this may help. 

SO, on Sunday I decided that I was going to prepare some foods that I know I can eat so that when I'm working and taking care of Lulu I don't have to be swayed by the quick delicious pizza down the block.
The most difficult meal of the day for me is lunch. I never seem to know what to eat even when I was allowing myself wheat.

So this is what I decided on preparing:
  • a tub of Quinoa that I could use for breakfast, lunch and dinner
  • some veggie soup
  • granola
  • cut carrots and celery for hummus
  • cranberry apple compote
  • tomato sauce w zucchini
  • chicken breasts
  • my favorite carrot ginger soup (pic is of soup before the immersion blender)
