- Limited processed foods.
- If I buy something that is packaged it needs to have less than 6 ingredients.
- I must be able to purchase those 6 ingredients in the supermarket where I am buying the above mentioned packaged item .
- Eat as much "Real" food as I can. Food that my great great grandma would recognize.
- Very limited fast food.
- Mostly Organic (post to follow about this)
- Grass fed beef, free range chicken, and fresh fish/shrimp.
- We add in vegetarian meals either for lunch or dinner a few times a week.
- Lots of whole grains, very limited white pasta/rice/breads.
How do I handle the food items my kids eat that I have no control over? (Birthday parties,School functions, friends house.) I don't worry about it and I let them eat it!!!! The large majority of their diet is healthy REAL food so a cupcake at school is OK with me. They are kids!!

I love this Jen! We have been on a similar food journey. Where do you find free range chicken? That's the one thing I am struggling with here. The market has some, but it is super pricey!
HI Erin! I buy most of my free range chicken from Whole foods or at Raleys a grocery store here. It is pricey so we just eat a whole lot less of it. It is a treat instead of a staple now.
