[quote=Anonymous]My parents are in their late 70s.

My mom has oatmeal with almond milk and blueberries for breakfast. My dad usually has a banana and piece of toast with peanut butter. They both have black coffee.

For lunch my mom usually has a can of soup or a salad with chicken or tuna on it. My dad usually has lunch meat and cheese in a large tortilla.

My dad snacks on mixed nuts all day long. My mom has these 100-140 calorie protein bars she eats if we’re out and about.

Dinner is usually some casserole or stew / chili / curry concoction my mom makes. She loved quinoa, ground turkey, brown rice, broccoli, spinach, Brussels sprouts, and beans. Lots of beans. She loves “The View” “Dr Oz” and “the Today show”. Her recipes usually reflect whatever the current diet trends or what she saw someone cooking on TV. She also seems to get lots of Pinterest recipes from other women her age.

They go out to eat a lot. Probably 2-3x each week. When they are out, my dad usually has a beer and steak, burger, or other hearty fare to make up for the keto/vegan/gluten free stuff my mom feeds him. [/quote]
