Gatorade
Chicken Noodle soup

It’s band camp week, I have plenty of both. Personally, I would have blown sister off, and then I would have hit the grocery for something “homemade” and made a pitcher of tea

I ran this problem by two of my children, & one says breakfast burritos (scrambled eggs w/ cheese & salsa), & the other says a nice big batch of pancakes. I say that I like the fritatta idea, & maybe some cut-up fruit. We can make muffins pretty fast around here too, so I might throw those together too. )

Hmmm,

It would have to be some egg based thing, omelets or a quiche. Oooh, a spanakopita recipe that I have is really yummy and easy, and I actually have phyllo dough in the freezer, and fresh baby spinach and eggs. I’d have to substitute cheese wise though, and use cheddar instead of feta. Still, cheese, eggs and spinach pie? Whats not to like That and some sliced oranges and apples and maybe a fruit smoothie.

Cheddar cheese + turkey sausage omelette
Diced potatoes with sautéed onions + red peppers
Nectarines + fried bananas over mini pancakes drizzled with powdered sugar
Passion orange juice + ice

Mmmm!

I seriously need to read this and other frugal/home blogs more… I SO don’t have the pantry stock ya’ll have! LOL But I’m on my way to your house for some biscuits and gravy!

I’d have to give my guests cereal, hot or cold…

Hmm, tough one. Based on what I have in my kitchen right now, I could make oven hash browns (more like cottage fries, really), a spinach-mushroom-bacon quiche (crustless), green salad, and strawberry shortcake.

Now that I’ve done all the planning, maybe we’ll have that for dinner!

I would make a sausage casserole, a cream cheese coffee cake, a really weird fruit salad, as I have a whole assortment, and cucumber cream cheese sandwiches.
