If you are looking for a 2nd line(description) you have you use either the menu with header image or the design menu plugins

I have used menu with header image to achieve what you want @TJordan2011 - I'm curious why would you want to modify the menu simple plugin if a solution already exists?

Here are my two reasons for wanting to modify the menu simple plugin instead of using the other suggested solutions. 1. The menu list I am creating cannot have an image banner. There is no option in the menu with image header plugin to remove the image and just stick with the text and 2nd line description. 2. The design menu plugin does not work with landscape mode.

I just figured it out. With the Circle List Menu Plugin, if you set the Radius to 0 and the Translation amount to 0, you will get a menu list exactly like Menu List simple, but you can add a 2nd row description and an icon to the row.

Now that is an impressive solution Jake! Thanks for taking the time to find that one out. I'll be buying that plugin now!

I used the plugin with header to achieve it. Had to set the image height for the header to zero in the plugin's code. That did it.
