Chicken Mexicana

My kids really love this meal too. It can be made as a freezer meal also. If you are feeling up to it you could double the batch and eat one for dinner tonight and put one in the freezer for later. Serve with yellow rice and black beans. Continue reading “Chicken Mexicana”

Better Than Boxed Muffins

Basic Muffins (I do not remember where I got this recipe from but will give credit when I remember.) Blueberry muffins are the favorite here at our house.

I often double the recipe so we will have some muffins for snacks later in the day.

Easy Pancakes and Waffles

In our house Thursdays are always Pancake Days. Waffles are usually saved for weekends as they take a little bit longer to make. For special occasions top these with Blueberry Syrup and whipped cream.

This will make about 8-10 pancakes and 6-8 waffles. I usually double or triple this recipe to feed my crowd.

French Toast

We have this almost every Tuesday morning. I double this and sometimes triple it to feed my hungry crowd. I also use an electric griddle to cook them on so I can make bigger batches. These are good with blueberry syrup and whipped cream also. Continue reading “French Toast”

Breakfasts

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. During the week we have a schedule that we go by:

  • Mondays: Cereal/Oatmeal
  • Tuesdays: French Toast
  • Wednesdays: Muffins or Toast
  • Thursdays: Pancakes
  • Fridays: Cereal/Oatmeal

This helps keep the morning chaos to a minimum as there is no fussing about what we will be having.
