The simple way to do it if you want to do it online is to make a menu that stays the same. You enter it once then copy/paste. I have a three week menu so I have that copy/pasted through February and the only item I change is one of the fruits which I always list it as an apple (1) so I know that is the fresh fruit item I buy each week at the store and when I enter it at the end of the week it takes about 5 minutes. I've been on it a year and this is the easiest and fastest way to do it! It took a year though!

The only slip up I've done is thinking that hashbrowns are a grain but they're considered a fruit/vegetable category so did that a few times then I remembered! Someone from the food program should show you how you do it. You also have to know how to enter on your calendar is you're closed and also contact your sponsor for the days you're closed so they don't do a drop in inspection those days.
