Week 1- Menu

We eat cereal for breakfast every morning. It is a rare occasion that we have a "big" breakfast. So unless it is stated a bowl of cereal with milk is on the menu for breakfast.

My "weeks" also start on Friday. This is the day I go grocery shopping.

My menus follow a bit of a format so it requires less thinking on my part. 

Lunch is on a five week rotation. Sometimes this changes due to a picnic at the park or a grocery shopping trip.

Dinner-
Mondays we eat something we have tried and liked.
Tuesday is always tacos.
Wednesday we something a frozen meal.
Thursday is pizza night
Friday we try something new
Saturday is a crock pot meal
Sunday I make a freezer meal. (I take the meal to be made and double or triple to be frozen to eat later)
