Adoption: Meal Time

One of the things that I really need to work on among many.....is meal time.  I usually go looking through my cubboard and try to figure out what I am going to make either the night before or that day.  I need to be more organized when it comes to my meals.  I want a schedule that I can alternate either every two weeks or once a month.  Maybe you can help me out.. What are somethings that you do?

Usually for breakfast I fix the little girls cereal or toast (which ever they request) the big kids they fix it themselves.  I always make their lunch and dinners.  The other day I was in need of grocery shopping but this is what I came up with at the last minute on what to fix for lunch. 

Here are a couple of pictures.  So some of them wanted quesadillas, hotdogs, chips and cookies.

The start of the esembly line with my love notes on each plate.
I don't do this every time but they get a kick out of what I put on their plate each time.

  1. For dinner, I typed up a list of meals we like. About 35 different meals. On the other side of the list, it had the main ingredients needed for that meal. Then I cut the list into strips and folded it in half, then laminated the strips. I have them in a little box and once a week we draw 7 slips out and that will be what we have for dinner that week. Sometimes I have one that just WON'T work that week for some reason, so I change it out for a different one. One slip says "Hannah's Choice" or "Sarah's Choice" or "Eat Out". After they've been used, they go into a second box, so that they rotate through about once a month, rather than popping back up week after week.
