What to feed 7 kids

I have 4 older sisters and I was talking to one of them the other night. We were reminiscing-drooling actually about all the great meals our mom made for us as kids and how our spouses won't touch the stuff. It was all made on a budget of course, but the presentation made us feel like royalty.
Namely;
Macaroni and cheese in the oven, with toasted breadcrumbs on top.
Ghoulash/hamburger with noodles and tomato sauce in the oven
Whole casserole dishes of scalloped potatoes in the oven
Meatballs with cream of mushroom soup over linguini noodles
New potatoes and yellow beans steamed together with margarine on top
Creamed peas on toast
Buttered toast dipped into our hot chocolate
Chicken and dumplings in a homemade gravy with all the fixings.
Queen Elizabeth cake-which was really tomato soup cake with raisins and spices
Vanilla ice cream with canned peaches and syrup poured overtop
Homemade strawberry pie with real whipped cream
Homemade taffy poured over snow which was kept in the freezer and eaten on the hottest day in July
Fish cakes, which was really canned salmon rolled in breadcrumbs and fried in butter, served with mayo
Fried red tomatoes, caked in flower and covered with pepper.
Toasted tomato sandwiches with bacon lettuce and of course Cheez- Whiz (our one luxury)
