Recap of Week 6
- Try making rolls from Master Recipe in Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day: 100 New Recipes Featuring Whole Grains, Fruits, Vegetables, and Gluten-Free Ingredients
I did not try to make rolls. However, I did use the master recipe to make sandwich bread. It was delicious. I also added rosemary and olive oil to a portion of the master recipe to make a loaf of bread to go with our linguine with clam sauce. Awesome!
- Start a collection of family friendly vegetarian meals. I found a couple of blogs and cookbooks that have some yummy family friendly recipes.
- The Veggie Table
- Spatulatta
- Better Than Peanut Butter & Jelly: Quick Vegetarian Meals Your Kids Will Love!

We do sushi night once a week. My little one loves avocado rolls. You could make them with whatever veggies your little ones like. We use soy paper so it is easier for her to eat.

I recently found your blog and love it! Please come by my blog later today and accept an award I have for you:)
Hi Molly,
Thank you so much! I am glad you are enjoying it. I have always wanted to learn how to crochet, so I will have to stop by your blog, as well.
Take Care!
Ladybug ~ My husband, oldest daughter, and I love sushi. However, I have never attempted to make my own. I am a little intimidated.
A Mom After God's Own Heart ~ Thank you so much for the award. I appreciate your support!
Tara,
Believe me... if I can make sushi ANYONE can and it makes for a fun dinner. We do the sushi rice in the rice cooker. Mix approx 5 TB of rice wine vinegar with 1 tsp of sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt. When the rice is cooked mix in the rice vinegar mixture and spread rice out on cookie pan to cool. The rest is all prep work (cutting up veggies). Everyone rolls their own... even my 3 year old. You can actually roll without the bamboo mats but they are handy. Just be sure to cover bamboo with cling wrap. It is one of our families favorite meals.
Ladybug,
Thanks so much for breaking it down for me. Not so intimidating that way. I do not have a rice cooker, but have been considering purchasing one. This gives me a good reason.
