Kate’s Week

We are going to be eating fairly simply for the early part of this week. I’ll be busy finishing stocking the freezer (and enjoying freezer food made in January) for the trip to Blissdom, and doing all the other things that go along with that. Right at the top of that list is fitting in some extra time to cuddle with my kiddos and spend time with Eric.

Eric and the kids will me to the airport early Thursday morning and pick me up early Sunday afternoon. My plan is to have as much made ahead of time as I can, whether it’s in the freezer or the refrigerator. My brother-in-law will be giving the kids dinner one night, and my father-in-law will be doing it the other, so I want things to be as easy as possible for everyone.

Breakfast

• M - Pancakes & smoothies
• T - Cinnamon-apple stuffed French toast (from the freezer)
• W - Sunshine toast
• Th - Morning glory muffins (from the freezer) in the car
• F -  Oatmeal
• S - Pancakes (from the freezer) with peanut butter
• Su - Eric and the kids will probably pick up something on the way to the airport

Lunch

• M - Tuna pasta, oranges
• T - Quesadillas (using Monday’s leftovers), pears
• W - Leftovers or cheese, peanut butter, crackers and apple slices
• Th - Sandwiches, yogurt
• F - Easy mac & cheese (in the fridge), peaches
• S - English muffin pizzas (in the freezer), applesauce
• Su - T.B.D.

Dinner

• M - Chicken & black bean tacos (from the freezer)
• T - Spaghetti & meatballs (from the freezer)
• W - Chicken stir-fry over brown rice
• Th - Chicken cacciatore (in the freezer) over spaghetti, breadsticks (in the freezer)
• F - BBQ beef & bean cornbread casserole (in the freezer), maple-glazed carrots (in the freezer)
• S - Dad’s choice - Hot dogs, tator tots, corn
• Su - T.B.D.

Toni’s Week

With my 30 Days of Meals, planning for Blissdom has been easy. I will be in Nashville from Thursday to Saturday, but meals are already frozen and ready for my family to heat without me. If you are like me most of your extended times away from your family involve giving birth. One way to bless your family on the rare occasion that you are away is to leave meals for them.

This week starts the Hot Breakfast Challenge. February is National Hot Breakfast month and I am challenging my readers to give up cold cereal for this month. I hope to post many recipes, feature some guest bloggers, and put up a Mr. Linky each Wednesday for you to share your favorite breakfast recipe. We eat a lot of pancakes around here so please share your breakfast ideas with me!

Breakfasts- Pancakes, Biscuits, Oatmeal, French Toast, Cinnamon Rolls

Lunches- Sandwiches, Muffins, Smoothies, Cheese and Crackers, Fruit, Veggies
