Almost-Clean Banana Pancakes
1 egg

3/4 cup oatmeal
3/4 cup flour (I used white because that is what I had, but I bet whole wheat would be good too)
3/4 cup milk
3 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

Mix all ingredients together, throw in a frying pan over medium heat!  Enjoy!  I added syrup and powdered sugar for the kiddos, but they were good straight out of the frying pan!

Lunch

Tuna fish

2 cans of tuna (in water)
1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
1 hard boiled egg (peeled ;p and diced)
3 stalks of celery (diced)
mustard to taste (I like a lot)
garlic powder and onion powder to taste

Mix all ingredients together and enjoy on a piece of whole grain toast or dip fresh veggies (carrot sticks, peppers, etc).  I have also wrapped in a piece of lettuce (this is my favorite way to eat this)

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

3 TBSP EVOO
3 TBSP whole wheat flour
1 cup milk (I use lactaid because my kids are lactose-intolerant)
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup shredded cauliflower
1 cup shredded broccoli
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
3 cups shredded cheddar

In a frying pan, heat EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil).  Whisk in flour.  Once the flour is all mixed in, it should start to make a paste.  Slowly whisk in milk.  Once milk is totally incorporated whisk in Chicken broth.

Transfer mixture to crockpot.  Add shredded veggies (I shred mine, to hide extras so my kids don't know they are eating carrots, cauliflower, and broccoli).

Cook on high for 4 hours.  Add shredded cheddar and cook an additional hour!

Stir and Enjoy!
