So, I ended up taking white chicken chili (I add a can of diced green chilies to this recipe and it’s my go-to: https://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes...0-fc2343fa7ff8) along with cilantro, chopped avocados, and shredded sharp cheddar cheese and a bag of corn tortilla chips. I also sent a gallon of whole milk (that’s what she said her 2 and 3 year old drink), a loaf of banana bread, and a bag of cutie oranges.

She just texted me that they all loved the meal and that it was healthy and delicious. After meeting her today to drop off food she said she tries to limit gluten (no one is celiac or anything she just tries to limit it). So that ended up being a good meal. I know it sounds dumb but I’m genuinely so relieved she liked it I was nervous. And I think I am going to have a rotation of 4-5 meals once I know what they like— bc they’ll only get it once a month since I’m only cooking once a week for her. And that will make it easier for me I think.

So, any gluten free meals (taco soup I think is one) or soups that you love that are hearty would be most welcome!
