Jared sent this picture of Brody last night...we were missing him!!!
Rice pasta noodles
We did it! Twenty-one days free from refined sugar, gluten, meat, caffeine, and dairy and feeling great! Yesterday we drove our grandson down to Sugarland and returned him to his parents in their new apartment. Loved their new place...miss Brody terribly. What a happy and easy baby he is!! We got him off his nightly schedule and for that I am sorry Tyan, but grandma and grandpa just couldn't resist those adorable little sounds coming from his bassinet at 1am and 3am and 5am! When we got home I made Pasta Primavera...Andreea-my Romanian friend that speaks and eats mostly Italian in her home, tells me that this is NOT Pasta Primavera which means "Spring Pasta" it is more of a "Winter Pasta" but those words in Italian are much longer! :-)Pasta Primavera
1 jar pasta sauce (look for one that has the least amount of sugar-usually a marinara)
2 or 3 zucchini, sliced down the center and then cut in 1/2 inch chunks
2 yellow squash, sliced
1 chopped yellow onion
1 red and 1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 c sliced brown or white mushrooms
1 can black olives
1 jar artichoke hearts
In large skillet, heat 1-2 T olive oil. Sauté onion, and bell peppers, add mushrooms, and squash. Add garlic (put through garlic press) sauté a few more minutes. Add artichoke hearts that you have chopped into small chunks and black olives and jar of sauce. Heat through and serve on top of rice pasta noodles. Great heated up for lunch the next day.

wow it has all ready been 21 days! I am sure you are missing little brody--and I bet you spoiled him rotten-:) this dish looks amazing!
Twenty-one days goes by so quickly. We are just going to keep eating this way and I will quit numbering my posts! :-) Brody was just too much fun, he is such a happy baby! :-)
No worries about the schedule! He's such a good baby that I think he gives everyone what they want - he has slept through the night every night since he got home! Thanks so much again for taking him for his first weekend getaway, he had so much fun and we got so much done! We were missing him so much but I knew he was having fun and getting lots of kisses!
