I am still on a no protein buying kick (except sliced deli meat for school lunches this week) as we work on eating down the mini-chest freezer. The garden is finally starting to kick in enough harvests now that I should not need to buy any vegetables this week, and in a couple of days there will be lots of Italian plum prunes ready to eat so I won't need to buy any fruit this week. Well, I wouldn't need to anyway as we are still working our way through a large watermelon and we have a cantaloupe as well and an open jar of apple sauce that didn't seal.
Tomorrow I will bake a batch of egg "omelet muffins" where I will use 2 duck eggs, a tbsp. of diced green onions, a tbsp. of diced peppers, a tablespoon of diced tomatoes, and a tbsp. of diced ham per extra large muffin cup that has been greased with butter. Then the kids will just have to reheat them in the mornings. I will also make up several batches of pancakes for the freezer for making quick microwave pancakes in the mornings. I am not all that with it in the mornings, so if they just have something they can put together, I can be as zoned out as needed until it is time to drive.
