You may have noticed a trend in these menus, avocado and/or cucumber are almost always involved! The reason for that is avocado and cucumbers are huge favorites for everyone in my family. This week's menu features avocado and cucumbers and it was so yummy! We had:
- Cheesy Toast w/Avocado & Spinach
- Cucumber Rounds w/Hummus
- Chocolate & Nut Wafers
- Peppermint Tea & Honey
The toast was delicious! I just toasted up some bread, added cheddar cheese while it was still hot and topped it with spinach, guacamole, tomatoes and cilantro. For my guacamole I use avocado, lime, salt, pepper, cumin, cilantro, paprika and garlic powder.
These were pretty simple just a tad of hummus sandwiched between two slices of cucumber. I threw in a few tomato hearts because C loves them.
These Chocolate & Nut Wafers were so, so good! To make them I just melted down some chocolate with a about a 1/2 a teaspoon of coconut oil. Then, I dipped vanilla wafers into the chocolate and sprinkled chopped nuts on top. I popped them in the freezer for a few minutes to harden the chocolate.
What do you do with your kids to add some excitement to the week? I would love to hear in the comments below! Thank you so much for visiting Joy Focused Learning!
