Breakfast

Another big expense is breakfast cereal. For about $8 you can get a large bag of pancake mix that is good for 80 servings. You can make both pancakes and waffles with this mix. If you don't have a waffle iron you can pick up a cheap one that would pay for itself shortly in the difference between frozen waffles and the homemade type. (I got mine at Wal-greens for under $10, on sale). You can mix up the toppings so no one gets too bored. You can put syrup, jellies and jams, or even apple sauce, let you imagination do the walking.
Eggs are also getting more expensive but they're still not that bad. You can get a dozen eggs for under $1.50. You can fry eggs, scramble eggs, poach eggs, and boil eggs. You can also make breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, and french toast with them. Breakfast burritos are good with scrambled eggs some shredded potato. You can even add a little left over meat to them if you have some. I make french toast with eggs mixed with cinamon then put on the griddle, my kids like them cut into strips with powdered sugar on them then diped in syrup. They are also good with butter and syrup.
