livin' life one bowl of cereal at a time

Working Mom’s Weekly Menu #3

Here’s another week’s menu:

  • Turkey burger with french fries (holdover from last week’s menu)

I mix ground turkey with gluten-free breadcrumbs.  I will add whatever flavorings I feel like (barbecue sauce, mustard, parsley, etc.)

  • Homemade macaroni and cheese with barbecue meatballs and green vegetable

Gluten-free penne pasta coated with a white cheese sauce thickened with corn starch.  For the meatballs, I basically use a meatloaf recipe (breadcrumbs, barbecue sauce, egg, garlic salt) and make little balls instead a larger loaf.

  • Spaghetti with meat sauce

Spaghetti is one of the few meals that I actually make two pastas–one gluten free and one regular.  W really doesn’t care for the GF spaghetti noodles.  Same sauce for everyone.

  • Tacos

Hamburger, taco sauce, taco shells, tomatoes, cheese, and lettuce

This is a fun recipe to make with kids.  I didn’t have any GF corn flakes, so I am going to try Corn Chex and see how that works out.  I think any kind of crunchy cereal will work.
