Freezer Pantry Challenge - Days 14 and 15

Due to illness I have kind of gotten out of sync the past couple of days. Haven't really had any 'meals' during the daytime. DH and son have pretty much fended for themselves putting together odds and ends of leftovers, etc. DD did bring stuff last night for son to cook a quick meal (turkey burgers and french fries), and this evening I managed to throw together a fairly decent supper (baked chicken thighs, canned potatoes slice and fried in butter, green beans, and bread and butter), but as for actively pursuing the challenge at hand, I haven't. Maybe things will be better tomorrow.

Freezer Pantry Challenge - Day 12

I don't know that I'm doing that well with my freezer/pantry challenge. Where I see most people that have taken the challenge using up little bits of this or little bits of that (prepackaged frozen foods, etc.), I don't have a lot of those types of things in my freezer. I mostly have flour, rice, beans, oats, chicken and vegetables, but, nevertheless, some of it has been there a while, and it needs used up. My menus aren't very exciting compared to some I've seen, but here goes today's menu...

Breakfast - omelet (me); oat pancakes (Tony and John)

Lunch - leftover pizza

Supper - chicken tacos served with lettuce, cheese, and sour cream

Freezer Pantry Challenge - Day 11

Breakfast - toast and tea

Lunch - Our oldest daughter surprised us with a 'Fun Friday' afternoon. On the way home from the doctor's office she stopped at the grocery store and picked up deli turkey, cheese, bread, chips, drinks, dessert, and a movie. We had lunch together over 'Julie and Julia'...which, by the way, for the most part is an absolutely delightful movie!

Supper - leftover chicken and rice and leftover lentil pizza
