Costco Haul

Last week, I ran to Costco, so let's take a look at the goodies I grabbed! 
DJ is working on getting better about taking his lunch to work; I grabbed these burritos for him to take to the office, and I will eat this for a quick lunch too while I'm between speech kiddos. 
Gluten free pizzas for Gretchen... she was complaining that her last ones didn't have pepperoni, so I grabbed her these. 
I love making this sausage with potatoes and peppers for an easy weeknight dinner! 
The little girls love these individual pizzas. On nights that I don't feel like cooking or when Megan needs to take dinner with her to gymnastics, these are great to throw in the microwave. 
The girls love cocktail cucumbers! I wash these as soon as I get home, and chop the ends off, and throw them in a bowl. They're perfect to add to school lunches. 
Speaking of school lunches, these chicken skewers are a great option for Gretchen to take to school! 
We love these fruit bars for a little snack during school, in a lunch, or after school. I also throw a few in my purse, in case the girls get hungry when we're on the go! 
We love their organic turkey.
Adalyn asked for blueberries :) 
And the girls love tomatoes too! 
I buy these for Gretchen, but I'll eat them with hummus! 
Please toss out your junkie cooking spray. Avocado oil (or coconut oil) is the way to go! I love that I can get these in a set of two at Costco. 
I was thrilled to find a gluten free brownie mix! Gretchen baked these last night, and they're not bad at all! 
We also like their gluten free bread. 
And the Dave's Killer Bread for Megan and Adalyn. 
I love these little granola bites! You can find them at Target too, but obviously Costco has a huge bag of them! But, Target has them in bars and has a few more flavors.... either way, these are a win, and they're allergy free. 
I bought a huge bag of chocolate chips so I can make DJ's student's some cookies, but let's be real, the girls and I eat them right out of the bag. 
Gretchen has been wanting Corn Chowder, so I bought a huge bag of corn so I could make her some soup sometime in the next few weeks. 
I also picked up more gluten free cereal for her. 
And I thought she'd want to try these gluten free cookies. 
And these gluten free cookies too. 
We love the Siete brand of chips and have been buying these for a while.
And, I feel like this has turned in to a gluten free post, because I ended up finding lots of options this time around! We use to buy Costco's ciabatta breads in the bakery section- they are so good for sandwiches with a little gourmet flair, so I was excited to find the gluten free ones. I like making a sandwich with these and heating it in the oven ;) I froze one section, and kept the other section out for Gretchen. 
We love their bell peppers. I chop them when I get home and the girls will eat them for snacks, but then they're also ready to go for dinners. 
I also love their eggs. We do a lot of baking, so these get used often, and the girls love hard boiled eggs for breakfast or school lunch. 
I bought a bunch of bananas, but the girls haven't eaten them, so I'm about to make some banana bread with them. Do your kids do that too? They'll eat a fruit when I buy it, and then the next time I buy it, they won't touch it. Sigh. 
A big bag of potatoes! Mostly for a quick dinner... I can bake these and then use the chicken skewers and peppers for a loaded baked potato, but I also grabbed them for the corn chowder. 
And orange juice, because my kids love it. 

Whew! That was a lot from our last Costco trip!

Can you believe I actually need to go back soon and pick up some more fruits & veggies, and sigh, lunchables for the days after gymnastics.
