cook

The older kids didn’t eat it….T kept asking what the green stuff was (bell peppers), what’s this? (beans) etc.

I bet if I’d wrap it in a tortilla and dump some cheese on it, I’d have more luck.

I’ll try with the leftovers.

I added cracker crumbs, onions, parsley, garlic, an egg, worchestershire, soy, all kinds of crap, lol.

A few spinach leaves and some tomato slices and a bit of mayo, good wheat bread. Olives and grapes on the side.

Easy, yummy, semi-healthy.

I ate alone, but cooked all the ground turkey and saved the other burgers for the wee ones for tomorrow.

Spaghetti squash mixed with a sour cream, spinach, onion, garlic, mushroom mixture, topped with bread cubes (I didn’t have bread cubes so subbed french fried onions) and parmesan and baked until browned.

Pretty tasty. 3 out of 5 toddlers liked it. :)

soy, ginger, brown sugar marinated pork chops with apple cinnamon rice.

Leftover rice for breakfast.

I made a huge pot of lentil soup. Again, nothing fancy…easy, basic, healthy and cost effective. :) Also, it will last a while.

Must cook the pork chops tonight!!

breaded pork chops with mushroom gravy/sauce

Something I’ve made several times. It’s a big hit here. My son and J love it but baby girl is not much of a meat eater. She did eat a TON of mashed potatoes though. :)

I’ve got a recipes for a marinade to prepare the rest of the chops tonight…

I baked the acorn squash with some tart apples, cinnamon, brown sugar, etc.

Pretty tasty, basic…I smooshed some up with a bit of milk and gave it to the babies…they loved it.

but my stupid blender broke this morning.

I thought it’d be convenient to purchase the single serving sized one last time, not so.

I used it last night for my son and I and smelled the motor getting hot!

This morning I went to make my coffee smoothie (only day two of this wonderful discovery) and it doesn’t work.

How will I ever make it through the day?

over the weekend a huge pot of chili.

Tonight I made a really simple but tasty ground beef casserole with the leftover chili meat that I will feed to the children tomorrow.

I’m going for efficiency these days.

I’d like to make the bread tomorrow.

for lunch for the children I made franks and beans that is, beanie weenies. Not sure I’d ever prepared this but they sure loved it.

beans, brown sugar, mustard, sauted onions, hot dogs.

gross.
