Dinner: Quiche (crustless quiche, which my husband said is a frittata, but we’ll just call it quiche) I basically just fried up a ton of ground beef and put in broccoli and a bunch of spices that I don’t remember right now. It was super delicious! I should’ve written it down.
Dessert: Q Cookies (After making this quiche, I was out of eggs, so I used this recipe! They turned out pretty good. Crumbly, but good.) She used frosting to make Q’s (really good fine motor skill activity!)
(Other food options: quail, quesadillas, queen’s bread, quinoa, Q shaped ______)
