You should make copycat sauce. I just buy it by the quart and make them at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463619 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 17:58:14 +0000 fussygal 2463619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're really bad about eating out on the weekends. If we do eat at home it's usually fend for yourself or soup and sandwiches.</p> <p>@youboots: AHH, I miss Cafe Yumm so much! Hot n' Jazzy is my jam. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463569 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 17:18:32 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2463569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Saturday we soup and Sunday we had sandwiches.

What kinds do you make? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463534 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 16:46:32 +0000 rattles 2463534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We eat the same as usual - leftovers, sandwiches/paninis, salads, soups, quesadillas, baked potatoes, sometimes mac and cheese... Sometimes I do a big brunch and then just let everyone eat heavy munchies. We also love to pack picnics. They like "rainbow picnics" which just involve fruits/veggies of all colors (last week was cherry tomatoes, carrots, yellow peppers, edamame, kiwi and blueberries with leftover popcorn shrimp and hummus/ranch dipping sauces). It's my most successful trick for getting them to eat fresh veggies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463528 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 16:44:42 +0000 Canoli 2463528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love this thread. We often eat out on weekends but I'm looking for ideas of things to make at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463523 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 16:41:52 +0000 jhd 2463523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually make a hot breakfast on Saturday. Sometimes we eat out in the evening or I make something simple/reheat leftovers. Sundays are often leftovers at home unless we are visiting with family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463506 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 16:32:35 +0000 daniellemybelle 2463506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are so bad. We eat out for lunch every Saturday and Sunday. I will usually cook dinner one of the nights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463350 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 15:03:51 +0000 yin 2463350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Leftovers if we're at home. I always pack food for the kids when we're out due to food allergies. Lately I've been packing meals for DH and I as well. If we don't have leftovers, I raid the freezer for ideas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463338 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:57:38 +0000 looch 2463338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like hot lunch all week, lol, but we plan lunch on the weekend just like any other meal. </p> <p>This weekend we had: chicken salads and tomato soup with wontons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463333 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:55:18 +0000 Mamaof2 2463333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>leftovers on Saturday -</p> <p>Sunday I grab a rotisserie chicken while grocery shopping and we eat that with fresh bread and salad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463310 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:45:41 +0000 regberadaisy 2463310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually leftovers or we grab something at the grocery store.

I want to try to eat out less, but it is so crazy during the week, and not having to think about what to feed the family on weekends is a huge burden off my shoulder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463303 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:43:10 +0000 mediagirl 2463303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like doing a munchie plate. Cheese, crackers, peas or green beans, pepper slices, berries or fruit slices. She prefers "snack" to "lunch" so I say, "Okay, time for big snack!" lol Sometimes I'll toss some leftover rice or pasta noodles on the plate, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463300 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:39:14 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2463300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We typically eat out :sad: On Sunday, our at home breakfast was so big it tied us over for take out dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463297 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:34:07 +0000 deerylou 2463297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Leftovers are a popular option. Otherwise, we tend to just kind of unload the fridge, before replenishing on Sunday evening, for the next week's meal plan. We'll chop fruit and veggies, slice cheese and meat, boil some eggs, and cut up some bread or set out crackers. Then we'll either sit around the table together, or set it up picnic style, outside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-for-lunch-on-the-weekends#post-2463287 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 14:28:02 +0000 travellingbee 2463287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are trying to stop eating out so much and we always eat lunch out on the weekend. Do you make a hot lunch? Do you do every man for himself? </p>
