Broccoli and Cheese Mini Egg Omelettes
http://www.skinnytaste.com/2009/03/broccoli-and-cheese-mini-egg-omelets-2.html

Modifications:  Honestly, it took way more egg than she said to use.  I tried to double it and get 18 muffins to have some to freeze, so I used 9 eggs, and I got 12 muffins.  I also would use a different cheese other than pecorino romano.  The babies didn't mind it, but I didn't like the taste/smell (same in the pasta dish for lunch).  You could use any combination of shredded cheese- 1 c for 12 muffins.  I used 3 whole heads of broccoli and had enough for this and the broccoli cheddar tots.

Cheesy Baked Pumpkin Pasta
http://www.skinnytaste.com/2013/11/cheesy-baked-pumpkin-pasta.html

Modifications:  Apparently my theme for today was Skinnytaste.  This also wasn't my fav, but I think it also had something to do with the pecorino romano.  You can use any shredded cheese here too.  I used a whole box of whole wheat pasta (around 13 oz I think), baked it in a 9x13, dried rosemary, and waaaaaaaaay more cheese than called for on top.  K liked this.  J wouldn't touch it.

Broccoli and Cheese Tots

Modifications:  I've made these before and they're good!  I chop the broccoli pretty finely, use 2 whole eggs, full fat cheese, no salt & pepper.  

3 Meals: 5/12/15

Brown Butter Pumpkin Waffles-
http://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/brown-butter-pumpkin-waffles/

This made 10 waffles, so I froze 5.  (2 for daddy, 1 for babies, 1 for mommy, and 1 for babies later this week.)

Modifications-
I love that these are whole wheat, but I wish they didn't use sugar.  Sub coconut sugar for a lower glycemic level.  It's similar to brown sugar, which is what the recipe calls for.  Cut the salt and syrup, they're unnecessary.
*Note- I just melted the butter because I didn't have time to down brown butter today.  It's still yum.  Also, we didn't have buttermilk, but you can make your own with 1 T of vinegar or lemon juice in regular milk.  However, I needed to use up some half and half, so I used 1 C half and half, 1 C whole milk.  Turned out just fine.

Playoff Meatballs

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/playoff-meatballs/

This made enough for 4 baby meals (for both babies- so 8 meatballs in each meal), plus mama had a portion.  I froze 2 meals and saved 1 for later this week.

Modifications- 

I halved the recipe because I didn't want 2 lbs of meatballs, HOWEVER, these will freeze beautifully if you want to stock your freezer.  

No salt or pepper.  

Make sure your BBQ sauce doesn't contain honey.  I also found one that had no high fructose corn syrup.  Bonus!

Spaghetti Squash with Moroccan Spices:

Modifications:

I cut the salt and didn't use fresh cilantro because we're out.  I also cooked it in the oven (cut in half, cut sides down, roast at 350 for 1 hr 15 mins) instead of the oven.
