Menu Plan Monday


Welcome to another week. My garden is actually looking like it's growing now. Last years cucumber crop didn't survive the birds, this year it looks like the second planting took and I'll be able to make some garlic dills for the cupboards. I usually get a whole years worth canned from a single row in my square foot garden. We also have bread coming out of our ears. A few weeks ago I mentioned that we got a huge load of free bread from a friend. My freezer is just starting to have tiny empty spots where we're making a dent in our stash. I'll be making some french bread pizza and lots of sandwiches this week. Also, last week I experimented with the kids fending for themselves at breakfast time since I have an early morning class. It worked well and I think that's the way our summer will work. In the fall my class isn't so early in the morning and I can go back to cooking my favorite meal of the day.

Here's what's cooking this week...
Breakfasts:

Choice of oatmeal, bagels and cream cheese, eggs and toast, and/or fruit.

Dinners:

French Bread Pizza
Macaroni Pie and green salad from the garden
Homemade Hamburger Helper and fresh garden spinach
Tuna sandwiches and veggies with dip
Chicken Crescent Casserole and green beans
Attending a birthday party
Leftover Buffet Night
