Boys Can Cook

Stuart was away this week teaching Raft Guide Leadership, so the boys and I decided to have a Boys Can Cook week.  On Sunday, we divided up the week between us, each choosing 2 days to cook and made a menu.
Sunday: Wren
      Pizza and Salad Bar
      Key Lime Pie
Monday: Dinner at a Friends house
Tuesday: Wren
       Asian Stir Fry with Tofu, Carrots, Snow Peas, Onions and Red Pepper
Wednesday: DAkota
       Mac-n-Cheese-n-Peas
       Chocolate Milk
Thursday: Dakota
      Quesadillas with Refried Beans
      Carrots with Dip
Friday: Mom
      Walnut Cheddar Loaf and Roasted Brussel Sprouts
Saturday: Mom
     Big Cheese Pizza (So I was going to make Walnut Cheddar Loaf Sandwiches but instead I hosted Wren's middle school Odyssey of the Mind team for a team party after their competition.  See next post for more on Odyssey of the Mind.)

Then we made a shopping list and went to the grocery store.  It was amazing how helpful the boys were at the grocery store when they were buying food for their own meal. Yeah!

Although I did not get picture documentation of every meal as intended, the week has been a great success.

Wren's Asian Stir Fry

 Wren's Key Lime Pie
This was my personal highlight of the week as it is one of my very favorite pies and I had never made it before.  We found it both delicious and easy to make so we will make it again.  YUM!
