Menu Plan - 10.16.11

We have lots of repeats from last week because we ended up going out to eat (had a coupon to use up), eating at my sister's and having the bon fire so I think I only actually made dinner two nights last week (oh yea!).


Food Storage
I am trying to slowly build up a food storage.  This week I am planning on canning beef stew and chicken soup.  I am also planning to buy several gallons of water to build up our 72-hour emergency kits.

Menu Plan

Now onto my menu, as usual I keep breakfast and lunches simple.  We eat the same thing week after week for breakfast and lunch and still no complaints.  I do some things on the weekend to make it easier for the week.

Still using more of the freezer cooking that I did in my menu plan this week.

Breakfast:

 

• Freezer English muffin breakfast sandwiches (these are a hit!) and applesauce or grapes
• Blender Batter Waffles
• Smoothies - my husband is our smoothie maker
• Giant Breakfast Cookies and peaches (need to make these)
• Clif kids organic bars (when we are in a hurry)

Lunch:

You can read how my lunch experiment (from last week) worked here.  I am doing it again this week.

I will be filling these lunches with:

• Homemade uncrustables, grapes and carrots
• Homemade luncheables (using lunch meat, sliced cheese and crackers), grapes and carrots
• Leftovers and applesauce
• Clif Protein Bars (for me)

Supper:

• Soft tacos, tortilla chips, corn and applesauce
• Cheeseburger Soup, crackers and apple crisp
• Alfredo Pasta Bake, Green beans, salad and Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day.
• Pizza, Easy whole wheat breadsticks, Spinach Salad and strawberry slushies
• Whole grain chicken soup and whole wheat rolls
• Spaghetti and meatballs, broccoli and garlic bread (didn't have this last week)
• Leftover Buffet
