Good thing a peanut butter sandwich is always a fantastic standby!
Today’s peanut butter sandwich included Crazy Richards chunky pb smeared on top of a Pepperidge Farm whole wheat deli flat.
On the side I had steamed broccoli sprinkled with garlic salt and Brothers-All-Natural apple crisps that I snagged from my parents’ house this weekend.
Quite the random assortment of goodies, but tasty nonetheless!
Just One Second
Please take a second (literally a second) to simply click here to give a woman a free mammogram. All you have to do is click the pink button on the website and sponsors of the site will pay for women to receive free mammograms.
Receiving a regular mammogram is so important for women in the prevention and early detection of breast cancer. You may read about my mom’s journey with breast cancer here.
On the Menu
I’m pretty excited about what’s on the menu for dinner evening!
I’ll give you a hint: Ryan scored this meal for us on Saturday.
Any guesses???
Question of the Afternoon
What is your standby meal that you make when you have nothing on hand?
homecookedem says
I used to click on that link everyday along with all the others on that site, but got out of the habit. 🙁 Thanks for the reminder, I am going to try and remember everyday again! 🙂
Amber K says
We almost always have oats and cereal, so it is usually breakfast for dinner if there’s nothing in the house.
Jessica @ How Sweet says
Quesadillas! I always have stuff to make those. 🙂
Sara says
I click everyday for the Breast Cancer site! And for the Animal Rescue site too. My go to meal is usually PB & J or cereal. 🙂
Cassie says
Do you meal plan for the week? If so do you have any suggestions?
Kelly says
Ugh I usually just grab a lean cuisine. Not the best choice, but certainly quick.
lisaou11 says
I usually make eggs when I’ve got nothing else!
Brooke says
bowtie pasta & pesto … I am obsessed with pesto (I have a great recipe!)
Tracey @ I'm Not Superhuman says
For lunch, it’s always pb&j. I can’t whip something up at work, so when I’m low on groceries I just slap that together. Simple, done.
Kt says
Brown rice, corn, blackbeans, soy sauce and hot sauce! Yummy, cheap, and always in my cupboard 🙂
Courtney @ Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life says
PB&J and cereal are usually 2 of my standbys – can’t go wrong with either one! 🙂
Holly at Greek Yogurt and Apple Slices says
My guess is FISH!! 😀
And my stand by meal is usually veggie burgers- frozen bocas are the best…and sometimes I crumble them into spaghetti sauce- soooo easy.
peanutbutterfingers says

Veggielady4life says

JunieB says

Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
That site is such a wonderful idea- love it! My standby is a PB sammie as well. Even if we have no fruits or veggies on hand, bread and PB are two things I never let run out!
lowandbhold says
My cabinets are almost always bare, haha. I keep the bare minimum of groceries around. Peanut butter always makes a good standby though. PB oats usually save me.
Alexa Meany says
i always have egg whites/ or eggs on ham + string cheese. Microwave omelet in seconds! just add a veggies and voila!
Shanna, like Banana says
Stir fry 😉 Use frozen veggies a top of bed of quinoa and apply any random spices including low sodium soy sauce..I stir fry once a week at least! 🙂
Naomi(onefitfoodie) says

Hillary [Nutrition Nut on the Run] says
