Our breakfasts are usually later in the morning and bigger (pancakes/waffles at 930/10) and so we usually skip lunch or have a light snack to tie us over to a bigger-than-usual dinner.

As a kid, we often had burritos, spaghetti carbonara, or tuna noodle casserole for lunches on weekdays.

My weekend is usually something like this. 3yo breakfasts at 7:30/8. Then we either go to or make brunch at around 11:30. Then she has a nap. Then we have an afternoon snack and I make a slightly more involved dinner than during the week.

Brunch is usually something along the lines of baked eggs or huevos rancheros. Very rarely we'll do a sweet thing. I find cooking relaxing, so the more complicated the dinner option, the better, as far as I'm concerned. It's much cheaper than therapy.

Forgot cauliflower and eggplant soups

Soup always soup, homemade chicken noodle, veggie and meatball, borscht, split pea, butternut squash, chicken chilli soup, mushroom, lentil, fish soup with veggies, black bean, white bean with spinach

Op here - I have a 2 and 4 year old and we're not European. We just like nice meals.
