Breakfast Rice Omelet

Hot Dog Lunch

Chicken Noodle Soup

I tried to make Saturday's omelet in the microwave. This was not a good idea. Processed cheese does not melt well in the microwave. We ate oily slimy eggs rather then having a good omelet. The instructions on the left are on how to make this in a pan.

Potato Chips

1 Potato

Table salt- if available

Joanie was able to secure some salt packets for free at work. To prepare the chips, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice the potato into thin slices. Sometimes cheese graters have a slicing apparatus on the side, if not a food processor or simply use a knife. Once the potato is cut, take a non stick pan and lay the slices out slightly overlapping each one. Place these in the oven for 12-14 minutes.

Quick Snack

Along the lines of the potato chip, cold baked potatoes make a great snack. Joanie made a bunch of these up and left them in the fridge along with the apples to snack on.

Saturday

Breakfast

Breakfast Rice Omelet

2- Eggs

¼ Cup- Cooked rice

1 Slice- Cheese

½ Hotdog

1- Potato

½ Package of Ramen beef seasoning

Cut your potato up and prepare it how you like it in a separate pan. I took a liking to shredding the potato, cooking it in margarine with some seasoning. To prepare the omelet, have the rice and hotdog already cooked and set to the side. Dice the hotdog into small pieces. Place a small non-stick frying pan on the stove over medium heat. Crack two eggs and beat them in a separate bowl before putting them in to the pan. Once the eggs begin to scramble add the hotdogs and rice. Flip this over and place a slice of cheese on the top. Let the cheese melt and cut the omelet in two to serve.

Lunch

Hotdog Lunch

2- Slices of bread

2- Cooked Hotdogs

1- Slice Cheese

Put this together anyway you like and it will taste good. Grilling the bread with margarine is not a bad idea...

Dinner

Chicken Noodle Soup

1- Chicken leg quarter

2- Carrots

1/2- Cup rice (cooked)

1- Package of Ramen Noodles

Boil the frozen chicken leg quarters until you're able to separate the chicken from the bone. Chunk the carrots and mix with chicken- cook in 1 quart of water until the carrots become soft. Break apart the Ramen noodles while it is still in the package. Bring the water to a boil, add the Ramen and rice then remove from heat. Soup is ready in 5 minutes. Season to taste with the Ramen seasoning.
