List of Supper Ideas

I sub quite a bit over the winter, and it seems that I always get kinda bored.  I bring books and magazines with to read, but I'm usually through with those (or bored by them) before lunch....

So, I make lists.

I make lists of things I should do in my house now, things I want to do in the future, ideas for fixing things up, what needs to be done on the farm, what I want to plant in my garden, what I should can from my garden, baby names (for future reference, of course), and supper ideas to have on hand for those days when I'm feeling uninspired and can't think of a darn thing to make.

Here you go (in no order whatsoever):

Use as you like, or discard as you like.  I like this because it's all things I like to make, but can never think of at the last minute.

hamburgers/hotdogs/brats/polish
pizza burgers
bbq's
funeral sausage
fried potatoes
potato wedges
hamburger gravy over potatoes
swiss steak
tacos
chicken enchiladas
roasts, pork or beef or both
ham and scalloped potatoes
quesadillas

Well, there's my list - in no way complete - it's just nice to have something like this handy to get ideas.



And, if you're a breakfast person, here's a list of fun breakfast ideas:

toast
eggs
pancakes
waffles
bacon
sausage
egg bake
caramel rolls /maple/cinnamon/orange
muffins
tea ring
coffee cake

french toast
smoothies
waffles with peanut butter and honey

maple nut butter (for spreading on waffles or pancakes)
  • butter wipped with syrup and pecans
berry butter
  • butter whipped with berries, then wrapped in a log and refrigerated/frozen until ready for use

Anyway...there you go.  Hope this helps you think of something fun to make for supper/lunch/breakfast!
