Summer Meal Plan

July Meal Plan

Generally I prefer 5 hot breakys and 2 cold, quick and easys.  You will find a combo of oatmeal, poached eggs, bacon, quick bread and cold fruit.  So here we go.

Breakfast:  
Eggs & Bacon
Oatmeal
Fried Egg Sandwich
Amish Bread, Fruit and Yogurt
Donut Muffins {like a potato chip you can't eat just one}
French Toast {we like to use egg bread}
Picnic Breakfast at the beach.  Nothing beats bacon & eggs cooked outdoors.  

Lunch:
Slider Bun Sammy's {filled with chicken, tuna or egg salad}
Veggie Wrap
Chicken Wrap
Pita Pizza
Mac'n Cheese
Chicken Quesadillas
Salad {Greek}
Picnic Lunch at Park
**all meals served with a cluster of grapes and handful of veggies 

Supper: 

Daddy's Burgers 1x weekly estimating 5x.  So yummy and perfect.  He uses 1lb. burger and adds the following:  1 tsp. of each paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, dry mustard and 3tsp. worcestershire .  No eggs or onion soup or anything extra fancy added.  Turn on the grill {med heat} and 7 minutes on one side and 5 on the other or until grease bubbles form on top of patty, then flip.  Serve hot'n ready!

This should get us through the month of July.  I would really like to plan a tasty patriotic meal for the upcoming Canada Day celebrations.  Realistically, they might just get meatballs and sweet red strawberries & cream served on red and white dinner wear.  Pretty sure that is the best I can do for now.
