My husband has had to have a lot of unexpected dental work done over the last few weeks and he has more coming on Monday. Because of that, he has to eat "softer"foods due to mouth pain from extractions and root canals. I said I'm going to make him and the boys mac and cheese and I'm going to cook myself a steak!! HA! For Real! Ok, maybe not but I did pull out some easier to chew recipes so he doesn't starve to death ;-)
Friday - He's still on the really soft food diet from the dentist so he's getting some cream of wheat. I decided to make each person their food of choice - Mashed Potatoes and Beans for Josh, Mac and Cheese for Nate, and, for me? Steak and a baked potato. Keeping it real ;-)
Saturday - It's our plan to take the boys to the Ninja Warrior competition that is in Grand Rapids so dinner will probably be on the run.
Sunday - Meatball and Orzo Soup and Crescent Rolls. Much to my chagrin, my kids don't like soup. So I'll make them Spaghetti which they both love.
Monday - Grammy's Swiss Steak, Mashed Potatoes, and Green Beans.
Tuesday - Ham and Cheese Quiche, Overnight Coffee Cake, and Asparagus. Oh, and some waffles and sausage for my picky kids.
Wednesday - We are going to eat at Wendy's for a fundraiser for the Ionia VBS.
Thursday - Lemon Barbecued Meatloaf, Mashed Potatoes, and Salad (or veggie depending on what is in the fridge!)
I think there is at least one thing in each dinner for sure that Darryl can eat depending on how his mouth feels; if not I will always make him fried eggs or cream of wheat :-) He "should" be back to regular eating by the end of the week!
