[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I use more convenience foods for lunch than some (flame away) but am tired of cooking lunch!!!! Pasta (I cook it the night before, toss with EVOO and refrigerate), jarred sauce and frozen meatballs they can add/fix themselves at lunch Frozen chicken tenders and bagged salad. Again they can fix themselves and they actually like salad. Sometimes they chop the tenders into the salad. Boxed/canned soup with grilled cheese. They can make it themselves. Quesadillas- we eat a lot of Mexican food so always have good stuff- they make their own Frozen pizza sometimes Hotdogs. Microwave. I usually have buns etc and they often experiment with odd toppings. dinner leftovers (of course) They mostly feed themselves. I’ll keep an eye on something in the oven or make a grilled cheese etc if they don’t have enough break time- if they ask. They don’t like cold sandwiches- never have.. [/quote] No reason for anyone to flame away. You gotta do what you gotta do! I can only praise you for that! Sure, my grandma cooked for us, but that is what she did! Fed a family of 6 to 8 people, used wood for fire until almost 1980! It took her a good part of the day to cook it all up! She also had chickens and pigs and a garden. Somehow people today are trying to be the best homemakers bcs we have a washing machine!! and a range!! But, we also work, and are now having to basically keep our kids at home while we work! My mom went to work and came home to a made dinner and kids fed by grandma and a half day in school. Society is insane, let's force mom to be Betty Crockers and Madeline Albrights at the same time! No, thanks.[/quote] +1[/quote]
