Breakfast: SUNDAY- Sunday breakfast is almost always cereal (like say 98% of the time). It's easy! and there are a couple of reasons that is specifically helpful on Sunday:
1. Everyone is getting ready at the same time/everyone is eating at the same time. (During the week we eat more in shifts due to school starting at different times)
2. There is no 'hired' staff that comes on Sunday.
3. All big people are helping the little people get ready and therefore no one has a lot of extra time to cook something real.
4. It's not too messy if you spill.
5. There are essentially no dirty dishes (just the 20 bowls and 20 spoons ;) but really, no pots, no pans and no intense washing is needed on the bowls, just a soapy rinse!
6. It's a special treat. (Incentives always make a getting ready process run smoother)
So Breakfast: Nicaraguan version of Fruit Loops (that actually taste pretty much the same) (mine are dry but the kids eat them with milk)
Lunch: SUNDAY- This is again a somewhat typical Sunday lunch. . . Some days Yicza and Oscar will cook and then we have something good and Nicaragua, but on the days I'm in charge of getting lunch ready its usually either American or left overs! (Remember it needs to be quick and easy because no professional cook will be assisting and we get back from church around lunch time so there's not a whole lot of stalling time!)
Anyways, lunch: Hot dog, chips, and Strawberry Tang
Dinner: This is not a Sunday dinner. . . We always eat dinner at church, but this was another random evening dinner that I forgot to include, so I thought I would stick it in here!
Dinner: Fried tortillas (chips) with beans ground up (refried beans) and cabbage salad with mango sliced into it! With Grape Tang to drink!
