We’ve not done well with eating together. My work schedule makes it difficult for me to eat with Hubby. He usually eats before I get home since he needs to be at work less than hour after I get home.
I was a vegetarian for almost 14 months. Medical necessity made it difficult for me to continue being a vegetarian. I have reactive hypoglycemia. I need a lot of protein which is more attainable from animal sources. It’s easier to plan meals for the family now.
My recipes come from Skinny Taste, Budget Bytes, Sweet Peas and Saffron, and the Domestic Geek.
