RT NEBAhealth: Master meal planning with these helpful tips for quick and easy family dinners from ADDitudeMag
, with two children diagnosed with ADHD, there are two questions that bring me to my knees every day: “What’s for dinner?” and “What are we packing for lunch?”
If a menu board requires more than one hand to use, you won’t use it. As cute as those clothespin menu boards are, they require two hands – one to pinch the pin and one to slide the meal recipe in or out.My solution to these problems was making a menu board using a vinyl jewelry organizer and some popsicle sticks. The pockets of the jewelry organizer provide slots for lunches and dinners for each day of the week. The sticks have food items written on them.
For dinners, I use jumbo-sized sticks. I put the name of a meal on one side and list all the ingredients on the other. This makes the grocery list a snap. Each child gets to choose one dinner each week. Mom and Dad each get to choose a dinner, too. The fifth night of the week is “Taco Night,” since everyone loves tacos. On weekends, we eat leftovers or order pizza.
> Once I make my grocery list, the kids are not allowed to change their mind. You eat what you selected.> If you don’t like what your sister picked for dinner tonight, sorry. She didn’t like what you selected last night. Just eat it. I’m not making special dinners for everyone.
