Menu & Recipes
Snacks!
A vital part of the management of our family! Available as snacks is always fruit - apples, pears, bananas, oranges. I also have cookies, muffins, and scones and smoothies.... I am not sure how to factor those in, as often I am unaware that the boys have eaten their way through a jar of nutella and a loaf of bread...until I make my shopping list - there will be some things I simply can't quantify or account for - but if it appears on the receipt, we or they have eaten it! Any food or meal item you see is a clickable link to a recipe with the costings. These are always based on the assumption that we will divide it by 5 - if we have a special meal, or have guests, I will let you know - but for the purposes of cost factoring, the total cost of the recipe will be divided by five to arrive at the cost per person.
