| Sandwiches are my all time favorite food and you can make a million different combos to produce such awesome flavors and it's a meal all in one. Gotta LOVE that!! I mean you've got hot or cold sandwiches, use different fillings, different condiments, different meats, different veggies, different breads.... LOVE sandwiches!! ! :) A "salad bar" with all the veggies I can find and several different dressings to choose from. Salads can taste very different with different dressings and veggies and meats. Try Italian, Ceasar salad, Cobb, etc. A Baked Potato bar Tuna Salad Lettuce Wraps (I started this when we were out of bread one day and the girls loved it! I like to experiment with different ways to make the salad too. When my dd was 6yo she came up with putting raisins in the salad. They loved it! :) Grilled Cheese Tortillas Refried Beans on Tortillas w/ cheese and sour cream Canned Soups Hot dogs Beanie Weenies Frozen foods I can heat in the oven: Taquitos Burritos Pre-cooked chicken |

| Leftovers - Make extra at dinner time just to make sure to have plenty for lunch the next day. Fresh fruit is always a hit when the weather is hot. Rice and beans is quick, easy, and cheap |
