Weekly Menu July 22

As I’m trying to get back into the swing of planning my weekly menu, I’m dealing with a couple of adjustments. At this duty station, we’ve had to find a house off the installation so my husband won’t be coming home for lunch. Between the expense of eating out and his attempts to be a little healthier we’re trying out packed lunches. I’m considering it practice since my little guy will be starting full day school in August. This means me preparing the lunches…and him remembering to BRING them. That’s been a big, fat FAIL in the past. So we’ll see how it goes. At the same time, I’m learning new grocery stores (and still haven’t made it down to Costco).

**reminder: I pick a couple of breakfasts and lunches each week and alternate as I want to along with leftovers.**

Breakfasts

hard boiled eggs and fruit (cantaloupe and berries this week)

breakfast quesadilla

Lunches

Salad with leftover protein

Meat Rollups with fresh veggies

Chinese chicken salad

Left over Creamy Vegetable, Chicken and Tomato Soup

Dinners

Easy Chicken Soup (with rice for my bottomless pit of a husband)

Breakfast for dinner: eggs, sweet potato hash, and banana (no grain) pancakes
