Sundays are "Cereal Sundays" for the kids at our house. It is the one day of the week we let them have cold cereal. This is for a multitude of reasons. Mainly, feeding a family of six cereal every morning would be like feeding them bowls of dollar bills in milk. TOO EXPENSIVE!! Besides the fact that it doesn't fill them up and I like having more control over what they put in their mouths. When I make breakfast I can add flaxseed and vegetable purees and whole wheat flour and substitute applesauce for fat etc., etc.
We've taken Cereal Sunday up a notch, though. Now before they get their cold cereal, they have to eat a bowl of hot cracked wheat cereal. Now they never ask for food twenty minutes after breakfast is over!
Here is my breakfast--I could hardly taste the eggs through all those vegetables.
Mid-day meals were a protein shake and some leftover Tilapia. Dinner was meatloaf and garlic mashed potatoes for the rest of the fam. I had my meatloaf with salad and green beans. I hated the meatloaf, though. The ground turkey I used had Italian seasoning mixed in. It tasted like Italian sausage. Ryan liked it. That's good. He will be having it all week.
