[quote=Anonymous]I would try and do a theme each night and pre-brainstorm what your family would eat under each categor, then mix and match for the week. Let’s say Monday is breakfast for dinner (so maybe scrambled eggs and toast one week, pancakes made with Kodiak mix and fruit the next, quiche and salad, bagels and salmon). Tuesday is pasta (spaghetti and meatballs, pesto pasta with mozzarella balls, lazy lasagna (layer ravioli with sauce and cheese, spinach, meat whatever, foil on top and bake), etc. Wednesday is Latin based and mix the proteins (quesadillas (one week chicken one week black bean), tacos, burritos, bowls, nachos etc) Thursday is clean up leftovers day and everyone kind of gets bits of what they liked earlier in the week Friday is pizza—frozen pizza and salad bags is fine or takeout, whatever. The Sheet pan Saturday (like sausage, small potatoes, Green beans—tons of sheet pan ideas on the web) If Sunday is your shopping day buy rotisserie chicken that day and add a starch and veg [/quote]
