This week?
Swim meet concessions Dive meet concessions Fast food when the Wednesday meet was called off due to thunderstorms before we got concessions Work dinner, teens are fending for themselves Planning to grill something tomorrow night, but no idea what. Maybe salmon. Next week will be better. |
Waiting for the rifs tomorrow, so it's been fast food and chicken tenders the whole week. We are in a rough patch. |
Tonight was what I call pasta bake lol. It’s like baked ziti cept I never have ziti. I it’s just pasta, Raos sauce, rotisserie chicken mixed together, mozzarella cheese on top and broiled for a couple mins.
20 min dinner. Made enough for leftovers tomorrow. Last night was pesto marinated salmon, potatoes ( microwaved) and peas/corn. Also a 20 min dinner. |
The summer makes it harder to plan but I made
Chicken enchilada casserole (basically enchiladas but without all the rolling) Mac n cheese and chicken nuggets for kids, leftover enchiladas for adults Breakfast for dinner (waffles, milk bacon and fruit) Hodgepodge (yogurt, protein muffins, plain pasta fruit and leftovers for everyone else, turkey sandwich for me) Not sure what tomorrow brings but we will eat out at least once this weekend.
