yum!!
would love to eat over!
girlsmom, question: are you and family not hungry when don't have a starch? are your kids full from just fish, and salad, if they eat it, and soup? I feel I always need a starch, is it just me?!

my baby nurses and my 1.5 year old is fine with whatever I serve her b''h. I always serve bread with every meal so I guess that covers starch.

well, dh won't be home tonight so I will eat cereal. I won't be home tomorrow night so dh will probably make himself a sandwich.
wednesday- baked flounder with rice and veggies
thursday- dh comes home very late so we usually just eat sandwiches. but I might end up making turkey burgers and baked fries if it's not going to be such a late night.

I usually have no clue (and as you can see, I only have 2 meals planned) but at this time of the year, I'm systematically emptying my freezer and pantry of certain items, so I know my options are limited.

Since I didn't make chamim last shabbat...
Sun--leftover chicken/turkey soup with noodles, roast chicken, veggie sticks
Mon--egg pasta with sauteed mushrooms, greenbeans. Need to make chicken and rice out of leftover soup/chicken and freeze.
Tue--need to do something with old cherry tomatoes and fennel bulbs sitting in the fridge, will probably defrost salmon patties (homemade last week when I got cheap fresh salmon).
Wed--kids invited for playdates/supper, DH fed at kollel. Yey! I'll probably have cheese toast with baked beans.
Thu--definitely not meaty. probably lentil and rice (DH and I love it, kids hate it) with boiled eggs.
We got a nice watermelon, strawberries on reduced price, nectarines in the market so plenty of choice for fresh fruits as dessert.

Sunday - corn nuggets and chicken soup with lukshen (I know, very balanced and filling, but we go to the ILs most Sundays and the kids fill up on nosh, so our main meal on Sunday is actually lunch.)
Monday - stir fried vegetables with marinated grilled tofu squares on a bed of taglierini (dh and I loved it; kids wouldn't touch it)
Tuesday - pepper steak over brown rice, hopefully
Wednesday - tuna patties, mashed potatoes, creamed spinach
