MENU - SECOND HALF OF MAY 2010

My last menu, two weeks ago, involved the first trip to a different WinCo, one that's laid out opposite from the two I've been at the last eight years or so. As you may know, I make up my shopping list according to the floor plan of the store, so I was completely disoriented through that whole trip. I went again on Friday and wrote down the new floor plan, so I'll be back in the swing of efficient shopping next time I go.

BREAKFASTS
oatmeal
granola (crockpot)
snickerdoodle muffins (doubled & froze half)
pumpkin bread (from freezer)
sausage pinwheels
baked oatmeal (prep night before)
blueberry oat muffins (from freezer)

DINNERS

I love that Silas has a night to make dinner and dessert :)
Hope the pasta with beet greens turns out well for your family! I'm curious to see how the kids like it. Did I mention we always top it with Parmesan? Everything's better with cheese.... :)
