Do you seriously cook like this everyday? No wonder it's time consuming. What happened to good old fashioned cold cereal for breakfast? But it does look much better than my menu.
ReplyDeleteYes, but I cook things out of order depending on how much time I have. The menu just helps me plan for grocery shopping and I hang it on the fridge ever week. Then I just cross things out as I make them so I have a good idea of what's still in the cupboards and what ingredients I've already used up. Also, I don't buy "good old fashioned cold cereal" because it's full of sugar. Our neighbor brought a box of GF cheerios over for us this week and Asher sat at the table for like 3 hours and ate the whole box in one sitting. :)
