Refined Sweetener Free Meal Ideas

Since there is so many foods out there that have added sweeteners, I figured I would give you an example of some of the things we ate while trying so hard to avoid the processed sweeteners.
I know we had more variety for dinner than I have listed here, but for the life of me, I can't think what! We did eat alot of chili and rice dishes. They were easier.

Breakfasts:

Scrambled eggs (typically we have these each morning, so we get some good protein)
Green Shakes (typically we have these every morning)
Oatmeal with applesauce and maple syrup
Pancakes (didn't add any sweetener, we have gotten used to these without)
French toast
on the pancakes & french toast:
Fruit sauce (fruit, water, corn starch, pure maple syrup, cooked just until thicker)
Peanut butter
Jelly (all fruit Jelly)


Lunches:

(All sandwiches were on homemade bread)
Peanut butter & honey
PB&J
PB & apple or banana sandwich
Tuna salad (homemade mayo)
Egg salad (homemade mayo)
Muffins
Hard boiled eggs
Meat sandwiches (home cooked roasts/turkey/chicken)
Grilled Cheese

Dinners:

(dinners typically served with veggies and potatoes or bread)
Meat balls
Spaghetti
Chili
Lentil chili and corn chips (corn chips don't contain any sweeteners)
Fried rice
Stirfry (homemade sauce)
Short ribs
Homemade mac & cheese
Roast
