Come and Get It!

So I've been meal planning for over a month now.

YAY me! 

I've learned that I can do this, 

and it doesn't seem like such a big hassle anymore.

I've learned that by planning well, 

the kids aren't always hounding for food.

(Go figure!)

They don't ask for nearly as many snacks as before.

Yay!

I'm going to be leaving lunches off the menu as we ALWAYS have leftovers, soup, salad, or sandwiches. 

It just doesn't work to plan lunches for us.

Here's this weeks line up.

Sunday

Breakfast - toast

Lunch - Picnic for soccer - pb and honey sandwiches and apples

Supper - Good Ole Boy made french bread style pizza with tortilla chips and salsa con queso.

(he decided, bought and prepared, I wasn't going to complain)

Prep - pull bagels out of freezer

Monday

Breakfast - bagels & cream cheese

Supper - tonight is the 4H small animal banquet so I just need to make brownies today for that.

Prep - pull two loaves of bread and burger out of freezer.

Tuesday

Thursday

(I still need to stop by our local grocery where we get our meat. We'll have preferably steak, 

but might be pork depending on what is on sale)

Friday

Breakfast - eggs & toast

Supper - we are attending a Fall Party, we need to bring a bag of candy and a dish to pass.

We have the candy, 

but I haven't decided what to make to pass yet.

Fresh fruit on hand - apples

Fresh veggies - peppers, carrots

What's on your menu?
