March menu - lunch

As promised, here is this month's lunch menu. I counted one day eating out because I think I will be having a girl day celebrating my Mom's Birthday that day, and Alif likes to order pizza or something when it's just he and the kids.

Some days I plan lunch around the previous night's leftovers. For example, tonight we're having chili and there won't be enough left over for a full meal, but tomorrow we'll have a scoop of chili over some brown rice and that will be a nice lunch.

Also, I usually will add in whatever fruits & veggies we get from our CSA box and at the grocery store. When you see lunch looking breakfast-ey, it's usually on a Sunday. We give the kids a little snack before church and eat a big brunch when we get home.

chili & brown rice
taco salad
pasta w/marinara, tomatoes, basil, balsamic vinegar
egg sandwiches, fruit
banana splits (banana, yogurt, fruit, cereal)
tomato soup, grilled cheese
tuna sandwich, apples
pita pizza

chicken & cranberry sandwich, pears
bean omelets, fruit
baked yams, salad
lentil soup (will freeze half for next time)
turkey sandwich, oranges
snacky lunch (will just cut up fruits, veggies, deli meat, boiled eggs, whatever we have around)
taco salad
salad w/tuna
egg scramble, cinnamon rolls
baked potato, broccoli, ranch

    Wow! A whole month?! That's impressive. I only do 2 weeks of dinners and make my daughter switch from a PB&J every other day, hah!
