Menu Monday for August 16 - 22

I try to keep things simple around here. With 4 kids, 2 dogs, 2 cats and 3 horses simple isn't a word that describes our house too well though. Not to mention my husband's strange work schedule. Anyway, one thing I do to make things a little easier to plan, is use a basic breakfast menu that changes very little from month to month. It goes a little something like this...
Sunday, Tuesday and Friday are cold cereal or instant oatmeal days.
Mondays are pancakes or waffles.
Wednesdays are toast, yogurt and fresh fruit.
Thursdays are French toast sticks or cereal bars.
Saturday is usually a big cooked breakfast. (If we have time.)
I also try to get in a fresh fruit most days. About the only time I change it around is when I have something that needs to be used or I find a good sale on something new. It seems to work well for us, so I stick with it.


Here's my dinner menu for the coming week:
Monday - Baked Mac & Cheese, fresh corn on the cob
Tuesday - Orange Chicken Bowl
Wednesday - Buckaroo #2 is in charge of dinner and is making Joyce Gale Casserole (I'll explain this one another time.)
Thursday - Leftover Buffet
Friday - French Waffles, Sausage, Fruit
Saturday - Chili Cheese Dogs, Tater Tots, Baby carrots w/ranch
Sunday - Parmesan Chicken w/noodles, Green salad, Cheesey bread
We have a bit of a busy week, so I won't be trying anything new, just to keep it as simple as possible.
Thanks for stopping in. I hope you're finding something you like here. ;)
