school’s out | menu – june 6

My daughter is officially on summer break as of Friday and we are going to spend the week trying to find a new rhythm. With respect to food, I’m thinking she’ll have more time to help in the mornings with breakfast and I am hoping that she can play a major part in dinner prep at least once or twice a week. We’ll be getting out for lots of park and pool time for the next couple of weeks before it gets to be 100º everyday so lunches will be on the go and picnic-style for the most part.

So… plans are loosey-goosey for this week:

Breakfast
Homemade Muffins & Fruit & Juice
Summer Veggie Tofu Scrambles
Migas
Yogurt with Mexican Style Granola
Egg Sandwiches with Pesto, Veggie Sausage and Arugula (got idea from here)
Pancakes

Dinner

Roasted Beets, Goat Cheese & Avocado Sandwich | Grilled Zucchini Pepper Salad
Green Beans with Tahini Basil Sauce | Quinoa | Side Salads

Other Stuff
