He is not the best cook, as a matter of fact I think my children will grow up remembering two things about Dad’s cooking – COLD or BURNT!!
I can’t complain though, he gets up every morning and prepares the kids a warm (okay semi-warm) breakfast and he never complains about having to fix dinner.
I always make sure we have sandwich fixing’s on hand just in case I’m running late and Dad covers dinner duty.
Here is our favorite dinner sandwich from the $5 dinner meals.
Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato Sandwiches or BLT’s
(Leave the tomato off and my kid’s are in heaven.)
1 pkg. bacon ($1.50 at associated stores, the Big Buy brand)
1 head lettuce ($0.97 at Wal-Mart, save the remaining for another meal)
1 tomato ($.75 this depends on store and sale price)
1 loaf bread ($.97 at Wal-Mart)
1 can peaches ($0.69 at Wal-Mart)
Fry bacon until fully cooked. Wash lettuce and pull off enough large pieces to make your sandwiches. Was and slice tomato. Toast bread they add 1 tsp of mayonnaise to each slice. Add 3 slices of bacon, 1 piece of lettuce and 2 pieces of tomato. Make a sandwich, cut in half and serve with diced up peaches. Now that’s quick and easy. Feeds 4-5.
