BREAKFAST - Our breakfasts are always simple. I'm not a morning person and even when I would force myself to put some effort into cooking a big breakfast the kids would come to the table, look at it and say "we wanted cereal." So cereal it is, along with a glass of juice.

  1. I desperately need to get some freezer cooking done! Just can't seem to find the time. Thanks for checking out my menu :) The Garlic Buttered Noodles are so easy! Just cooked Egg Noodles,about 3 TBLS butter and a nice shake or two of Johnnys Garlic Spread Seasoning - course every thing is good with that stuff on it!
