Breakfast doesn't just have to be for breakfast
There's nothing as fast or often as economical as breakfast foods. I know often we forget about them as options for dinner, but why? Omlettes, egg casseroles, and even egg sandwhiches can give us the protien we need with variety, ease and speed.
At our house we like to mix salsa in with eggs and milk and top with grated cheddar cheese. Left over salsa from the carry-out mexican food the night before is wonderful in eggs.
With omlettes the possibilities are endless. Some ideas for "fillings"- mushrooms, onion, cheese, the left over steak/chicken/ ham in the fridge, tomotoes, left over fried potatoes or veggies...
You can fix your own "Egg McMuffins" for a fraction of the price by purchasing english muffins at your next visit to the store. English muffins have a pretty long shelf life and they make decent mini pizzas (kids like to make their own) and are good toasted with peanut butter
