Fruit salad (vegan, Vegetarian, GF, Soy free), Garden Salad (vegetarian), Sautéed Squash (vegan, Vegetarian, GF, Soy free), and Pesto Penne (vegetarian)

Yummy! We had a GREAT dinner in the Oakley house! 

I had some fruit from our Easter basket from the in laws, and so I prepared a fruit salad.

It had Kiwi 

Mango, and I later added pineapple. 

I sprinkled the fruit with lime, then tossed it with poppy seed, and some OJ. I later realized that a drizzle of honey would have been good. 

Then I stared on our sautéed Squash. MMMM. I love squash, and it is so good for you! 

I tossed the yellow squash and zucchini in a pan with some olive oil.

Then I sprinkled some pizza seasoning on it. My go to is italian seasoning, but I am out. Sad face. 

I cooked the goods until they were slightly brown. 

Then I cut some greens for a salad. My go to is mixed leafy greens, tomato, mushroom, cucumber, and shaved carrots. 

Tonight, the dressing is Briannas' poppy seed. SO GOOD! 

For the main dish I made some Penne and tossed it with some already made pesto from the store. 

I failed here. I am lactose intolerant, and thought this pesto did not have cheese, but when I got home I actually READ the ingredients. Oh well, Looks like there will be tummy aches in store for me tonight. I LOVE cheese, but even a little will be bad news.

 It was very good though. You could taste the pine nuts and basil...mmmm...so good. I was only able to eat a little of it, but it was yummy. 

While I cooked, Emery made a ruckus with his play mat. This is my life :)

DINNER TIME! Michael, Emery, and I all gathered around our tiny table to enjoy. 

For drinks it was peach iced tea for me, and OJ for Mike. 

And Emery ate some homemade pureed carrots. We all ate good! 

Though it was not Vegan (and I was expecting it to be), this VEGETARIAN meal was very good. 

Happy Eating!

Love,
