What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals?
By Tracy Schruder
In our house we generally have difficulty agreeing on what to eat for dinner. We often do this old family tradition, that we lovingly picked up from my mother-in-law, called “point”. It’s a process by which the person in charge of preparing the meal opens up the cupboard or freezer and points at the ingredients for our next meal. For the busy days in our household this works great. However, oftentimes, there’s always someone who wants something else. Those times we generally just make whatever we want and break off into our own sections of the kitchen to make it for ourselves.
We have an extremely flexible meal plan in our house.
Although, the top three meals that always brings everyone to the table are breakfast for dinner with all the fixings; toast, eggs, bacon, sliced fruit or cucumber, home-fried potatoes with sweet onion, juice, and jam for the toast. It’s an all-time favourite, especially on particularly busy days.
The second one is Spaghettini with sauce and breaded or grilled chicken. I put sautéd red pepper, baby tomatoes, sweet onion, and garlic in my sauce.
The third meal is Slow Cooked Pot Roast with russet potatoes and carrots. During the day, this meal tickles the tastebuds of everyone in the house because it smells so good. By dinner time, everyone is looking forward to the meal with salivating mouths.
