We are not perfect at eating whole foods exclusively yet, but I want to transition into it. I figured keeping a journal of all of the things we make and eat would be a good place to start. That way I can look back and see how we are progressing. I love eating whole foods, so I'm pretty excited! We still have some things to weed out of our pantry, so those will randomly appear in different meals, but as I begin to experiment and shop differently, those will disappear. Here it goes - my honest entries of our meals and eating habits.
Breakfast: whole wheat pancakes with yogurt & applesauce and milk
Lunch: Stir Fry (carrots, onion, zucchini, yellow squash, mushrooms, garlic) with barley
Dinner: Boys ate scrambled eggs and fried baked potatoes. We ate creamy leek and potato soup.
Whole Wheat Pancakes
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2-4 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
Combine dry ingredients and then add remaining ingredients. Cook on hot griddle.
Stir Fry
I preheated the wok and put the ingredients in this order: carrots, onion, zucchini, yellow squash, mushroom, then garlic. After everything reached tender-crisp, I added salt and garam masala and let it set in the pan for about 10 minutes after I turned off the heat to seal in the flavor.

All of the meals today received excellent reviews in our house. The pancake recipe is tasty, delicate, and tender. Stir fry was delicious and has been requested to be exactly the same in the future. The leek and potato soup was so much better than regular potato soup with onion. I've been wanting to try leeks for a long time and I'm so glad I finally did it. Leeks will be a regular addition to our shopping list! Overall, a very successful day, in my opinion!
