Thanks to all who offered suggestions for what I could make this week with my on-hand ingredients. I’m still fleshing out our menu, but here’s what I’ve come up with so far:

Breakfast
Oatmeal with Ground Flaxseed, Raw Honey, Raisins, and Cinnamon and/or Cottage Cheese and Fruit

Lunch/Dinner
*Quinoa, Corn and Spinach Chowder with Homemade Fresh Bread (chowder recipe from Vegetable Soups from Deborah Madison’s Kitchen)
*Rice and Black Beans with Fresh Chopped Tomatoes, Cheese, and Tortilla Chips
*Quinoa with Cumin-Roasted Chickpeas and Sauteed Onion, Green Pepper, Spinach, and Canned Whole Tomatoes (input on additional seasoning would be appreciated)
*Fresh Tomato and Parmesan Risotto with Homemade Fresh Bread (suggestions for a complimentary vegetarian protein would be helpful)
*Homemade Pizza with Spinach-Packed Marinara Sauce and Finely Chopped Broccoli

I think I need at least one more meal that will yield leftovers in order to make it through Saturday. I’m still open to (and appreciative of!) suggestions as to what I can feed my family this week on a very limited budget.
