I get feedback from all my dcparents about my menu's and meal plan, including the ones who tend not to seem to give a damm. They always comment on how happy they are that I give them lots of notice about what the kids are eating each week and they are always saying that they'd love to come for lunch!!! I also find the menu is beneficial to me so that I can plan my meals and my grocery budget easier. Also the fact that I dont have to cook every day, just put a foil tray of food in the oven to reheat is sooooo much easier. I have tried lots of different ways of preparing the meals and this is by far the easiest IMO.
