Making a Menu: Recipe Ideas? -
August 4th 2010, 04:18 PM
My family is trying to plan a menu so we stop eating out all the time. We know that sometimes we'll be so tired that we'll say skip the menu and just get take-out, but we all think if we have a schedule to stick to it'll be better.
So I'm looking for things to put on a menu...which doesn't sound hard, but take into account our allergies:
Mine: eggs, pasta, chicken, coconut oil, milk
Mom's: eggs, pork, dairy, carrots, all nuts, shellfish, chili peppers, dill, cinnamon
Dad's: eggs, brazil (does anyone even know what that is?), almonds, beef
We all have other food allergies too, they just don't bother us except on bad days. Anyway, as you can see, planning recipes at my house is fairly difficult.
We have down: salads, and hamburger casserole (using bison meat). Can anyone think of anything else that will get around all our allergies? Thanks There are only so many recipes we can take and pretty much destroy in order to use...

Taco and burritos are easy enough to make. Another great thing is taco salad. Try to think of the things you get when you eat out. You might find that you will have to make bulk meals so each person can eat something and just freeze them. Maybe try some pot pies and homemade soups.Fishsticks and salmon are also yummy.
I would check out this thread and just scroll through and read all the things people are having for dinner. It might give you a ton of ideas.
