Menu Ideas

I have no idea what happened to the pretty 2 month menu that I used to have, it was written out on the calendar and there was 2 months of dinners that were all different.  You will all have to make due with a smaller run down list of some of the favorites.  :)  If there is something that you don't know how to make, LMK and I will try and get some time to write up our quick and easy way of making it.

The majority of items that I make are "semi-homemade" due to time constraints, especially since I have a job now, no more home made pasta for this girl.  ;)

Lets start with some breakfast ideas:

Day 1: Pancakes
Bacon
Fresh fruit
Rice or almond milk

Day 2: French toast
Sausage
Fresh fruit
Rice or almond milk

Day 3: Eggs
Toast
Corned beef hash
Fresh fruit
Rice or almond milk

Day 4: Waffles
Bacon or sausage
Fresh fruit
Rice or almond milk

Day 5: Biscuits and gravy
Hash browns
Fresh fruit
Rice or almond milk

Keep in mind, now that the kids are in school, they don't want to eat at home, they want to eat school breakfast, and I am not home for breakfast anymore, so I get out of many breakfasts now.  This WAS the menu for me before though.  Most of the breakfast items were easy to do from scratch because you could set up the stuff earlier and then just add the wet ingredients when you were ready.  :)

Onward to Lunch ideas, again, the kids eat at school and I am not home for lunch, so I get to cheat now and skip most of the lunches during the week:

Every day will have a fresh fruit and fresh veggie and chocolate rice or chocolate almond milk


Ham subs

Turkey subs

Ravioli

Spag

Mac and cheese

Cream of potato

Chix soup

Veggie soup

Pizza

Copeland pasta (family recipe)


If they don't like lunch that day they may have pbj


We forward on and finally hit the dinner selections that are a favorite in this house:
