My husband and I have committed to eating paleo dinners at least 3x/week. We'd like to branch out to breakfast and dinner eventually, but don't know where to start. Any easy recipes you can recommend? I'm very new to this!

Hi Bianca, |
Any ideas for vegetarian meals to kick off the week? I'm giving this a try with my twin toddlers, and am determined to make it work!

Hi Alana, |
Hi there! I have a six-month-old who absolutely loves eating solids. So far I’ve been making them fresh for the most part – I have given him a couple taste of earths best organic peas in the jar.
So far he has tried sweet potatoes, butternut squash, apples, peas, bananas, avocados, and carrots. I have frozen a few 2 ounce jars Of the sweet potatoes, butternut squash, and carrots – not sure what other things I can freeze that will thaw well. Any suggestions? Curious about fruits and possibly meets as I plan to introduce that soon too.
I know they say to freeze in 1 ounce servings – but since I can keep them thawed in the fridge for 2 to 3 days I just let them thaw, take out an ounce, and mix it either with another fruit or veggie – or use the rest the next day. Is that okay?

Hi
I am trying to get a head start on meal prep for daycare and know of freezing meals to use later but what kinds of meals will last long in the fridge if I'm just prepping at the beginning of the week? What foods should I avoid prepping in advance (won't be appetizing or will turn into mush etc) - I'll be making meals for a toddler with no known allergies or dietary restrictions.
Thanks in advance!
