Menu Plan, Week of March 30

What with the blizzard and all over the weekend… in Kansas… at the start of Spring Break… at the end of March… we’ve recently been subsisting on popcorn, homemade hot cocoa (this recipe is really rich – we used more than twice the milk that it called for), and snow ice cream.  I’m guessing at some point in time (when the snow melts) we’ll need to eat real food again, so here’s the plan.

Sunday, 3/29

• pizza omelets (recipe coming Tuesday), yogurt coffee cake muffins
• roast, potatoes and gravy, carrots
• more snow ice cream, and hot cocoa   (Did you know that dumping lukewarm homemade hot cocoa into snow makes the best ice cream?!  Really!)

Spring Break Breakfasts

• sausage biscuits and gravy  (I bought sausage today just so I could try Sara’s biscuit recipe… don’t they look beautiful?)
• oatmeal or granola with fruit
• fried eggs, bacon, toast
• waffles with smoothies
• scrambled eggs with muffins

Spring Break Lunches (served with fresh fruit and veggies, or smoothies)

• pigs in a blanket (in freezer)
• brown bag burritos (in freezer)
• quesadillas
• sandwiches
• leftovers

Spring Break Suppers

• tater tot casserole, peas
• pizza braid, veggies with dill dip
  
• ranch turkey pasta dinner
  
• bbq beef sandwiches, deviled eggs
• refried bean enchiladas, corn muffins

Since we are on Spring Break, we’d kinda like to get out a day or two to work at the farm or visit the zoo.  There is rain in the forecast (which we certainly are not complaining about after a long dry spell) and some massive snow melting to be done, but our hopes remain high.  My menu plan will end with Friday this week just in case we need to do some rearranging as our “vacation” progresses.

The Blogging Plan: check back this week for…

• April Fool’s Day Family Fun (which just might call for a little altering of the menu)
• Pizza Omelets recipe
• Lots of March 28 snow storm pictures (and some blizzard related gratitude)
• Finer Things Friday

Have a great week!  Check in with OrgJunkie for hundreds of menu ideas.
