Anyone want to share next week's menu? I've been reading through some old ones too. I always get in such a rut with repeat meals. My kids are so picky & I'm bored out of my mind. Lol I know...serve & let them eat or not eat, but they're so crabby when they're hungry.

I'm no help. I'm in a rut too. It's so hard feeding so many ages and likes/dislikes.
I went from feeding 10 dcks this summer, some with very hearty appetites, down to 6 dcks, only 1 with a good appetite. Lots of relearning what to cook for the group and more food wasted.
I stick to very basic plain cooking. Most of my dcks won't touch anything that's mixed. Casseroles, soups, etc. All ends up in the garbage.

I know because I've been liking your pics lol... turns out when I stopped posting Pics of my food, the visits dropped; yesterday I had more hits than ever just because I did Bento boxes? Whatever works.

aww thanks. I had stopped posting lunches because I felt like I was being redundant. But since I switched to family style I thought I would post again.
