Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Happy St. Patrick’s Day Everyone!

No pinching these kiddos today, my boys are all dressed in green and Thade is super excited about St. Patrick’s Day today. I wish I had a green meal planned, but I doubt that the kiddos would eat it… I hope that everyone has a very Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

What’s For Lunch: 3/16-3/22

We’ve made it to week #3 in the “Not Going Out in March Challenge”, and it is time to plan another lunch menu for the week. I’m trying out a new recipe and taking some much needed help from the freezer too. Here is what I have planned for this week’s lunch menu:

  • 3/16/09: Beef Burritos, Tortilla Chips, and Cheese Dip
  • 3/17/09: Chicken Rings, Fries, and Macaroni & Cheese
  • 3/18/09: Angus Burgers with Potato Chips and Dip
  • 3/19/09: Sloppy Joe’s and Potato Chips and Dip (on hand in the freezer)
  • 3/20/09: Breaded Fish and Macaroni & Cheese (MOPS is on Friday, and I need a super easy lunch)
  • 3/21/09: Beef Stew and Homemade Bread (on hand in the freezer)
  • 3/22/09: Beef and Broccoli Stir-fry with Rice

I hope that the boys like the Beef Burritos, and I’ve been really missing my favorite Chinese take-out restaurant, so I am looking forward to the Beef and Broccoli Stir-fry.

Breakfasts this week are going to be simple, simple, simple. I’ve got Pop Tarts, Cereal, and Waffles on hand for the little guys. I still have Eggs and Sausage for my hubby. I’m also helping out with MOPS Breakfast this Friday so I will be making a whole bunch of muffins. I might double the batches and have extra on hand for us too.
