Are We What We Eat?

Eating... I previously discussed how I think that eating is a priority. The balance of eating well is studied and argued and practiced the world over, day after day, century after century. This household has tried many methods of balance and planning. Here is a glimpse at the one we are currently performing:

"What do you think you could indefinitely eat every day and barely tire of it?" That was the question. Their answers led me to draw up a meal plan and delegate kitchen duties accordingly....

Saturday - Avé:

Lunch: Pancakes or Crepes

Supper: Tetrazzini or Alfredo and a veggie (she has a variety of favorites; peas, cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, beans, etc)

Breakfast prep: Scones or Muffins


Sunday - Jason:

Lunch:
Eggs and toast (Ideally, the eggs come from our chickens, and the bread is homemade.)

Supper:
Meat (probably something on the grill), potatoes, vegetable (whatever is available)

Breakfast prep:
Onion bagels (store bought) or cereal or something else...

Monday - Savannah:

Lunch: Homemade Pizza Rolls

Supper: Tuna and Buttered Noodles and Veggies

Breakfast prep:
Pie (Which was actually Jason's request and Savannah has kindly agreed to prepare it if he helps to keep onion bagels in the house!) or a Breakfast Cake…


Tuesday - Destiny:

Lunch: Seasoned Baked Potato Wedges

Supper: Soup (using whatever is available), Bread (usually homemade artisan), Salad (optional)

Breakfast prep: Cookies


Wednesday - Shiloh:

Lunch: Oatmeal

Supper: Spaghetti (homemade sauce when ingredients are available), salad (optional)

Breakfast prep: Onion bagels or a Breakfast Cake


Thursday - Amy:

Lunch: Crackers with toppings and leftovers

Supper: Sandwiches and side dishes

Breakfast prep: Toast (Homemade is great! But any kind of bread gets eaten quickly around here.)


Friday - Chester:

Lunch: Oatmeal

Supper: Homemade Pizza

Breakfast prep: A Breakfast Cake or Cereal


There were also snack options requested:
yogurt, pretzels, granola bars, cookies, popcorn, chocolate, jerky, fruit, etc...

And Hazel has the daily backup option of scrambled eggies, pb&j, etc. Which we, of course, prepare for her. :-)
