Taco Junk - I use an old South Beach Diet recipe for this, omitting the corn. We don't love corn. And I don't use ranch dressing.
Here is a recipe you can look at: Crock-Pot Taco Junk
Shredded Chicken - I make 3 lbs of this at a time and serve it different ways.
Take your chicken breasts put them in an instant pot and dump in about half a can of chicken broth. Cook on high pressure about 25 mins.
Shred the chicken with forks, adding in broth so it's not too dry.
Store in containers - serve adding barbecue sauce, taco seasoning, or any other seasoning you like. Just mix it in. You can also use it in soup or to make chicken salad if you like mayo.
Sides will be salad, frozen veggies. I'm limiting the options this week to save energy.
Lunches
Hubs went shopping for me, so he will be eating his sandwiches and the potato chips he had to have. My son will probably eat pbj and leftover taco junk. He requested his special hotdogs, so that's an option as well. I'll eat salads, leftovers.
Breakfasts
The boys requested oatmeal, so we will have that. Cheerios are a staple. Eggs we keep stocked. They requested Beyond Meat veggie sausages so I'll heat those upon request.
Snacks
Well....leftover Halloween candy. Goldfish, pretzels, fruit, veggies with hummus. The boys made chocolate chip cookies while I was in conference so we will eat those, too.
