My sons' friends were over again last night after he finished life guarding at 9pm. (He is at a busy pool this summer and it has been eye-opening experience for him in terms of parenting styles. Maybe I don't seem so bad now.)
Anyway, does anyone have any ideas on how to fill teenage boys up? I have encouraged them to eat here some of the time and they have finally figured out that they have to work an hour or more to buy a meal at Qdoba (their current favorite). I made two big cookie sheets of nachos and my daughter had made a vanilla sheet cake with chocolate frosting. I've also been slicing up watermelons which they devour. I'm also encouraging them to drink .... drum roll please .... WATER.

We go thru mass amounts of food at our house. With two teenage boys plus no less than 2 extras every day and night I can't keep the fridge stocked. They will grill hot dogs, make pizzas and eat any and all cookies, cakes and chips I keep. One big hit is our panini maker. I've kept it out on the counter and always keep meats and cheeses. They will go thru an entire loaf of bread and a pound of meat and cheese daily if it's around.
I just wish I could eat half of what they do!
I used to always buy everything @ Sam's Club. Hot Pockets, gallons of milk (I'd freeze two & use one), Chicken & Beef Taquitos, Egg Rolls, mini bagels pizzas, frozen pizzas, shaved smoked ham, shaved smoked turkey, thin sliced Swiss & cheddar cheese. I'd buy large flour tortillas, shredded cheddar, green chiles & a roasted chicken so they could make Quesadillas. Jumbo bags of chips, double bags of bread, the list goes on, lol. However, I never did desserts for fear that I eat them. Good Luck!
