Jumping back in because we have been SO off track the last few months. I finally went out this weekend and did a serious shopping run - far too many weeks of stopping for things on the way home (and spending way too much money!)

This week:

Tonight:
Frozen tortellini, red sauce
italian sausage for DH and I
salad
garlic bread

Tomorrow:
(Just DD and I)
chicken tenders
Homemade oven fries (red potatoes were on sale $1 for a 3# bag!)
corn, probably

Wednesday:
I'm the only one home, so I'll just scavenge.

Thursday:
Family dinner out with my MIL

Friday:
Hamburgers
Cheesy rice
salad


Saturday:
Homemade chicken tenders
mashed potatoes
salad
stuffing for DH who doesn't like potatoes
corn, because I like mixing corn into my potatoes
Thinking homemade biscuits

Sunday:
Ham steak but I dunno what with it yet. (We have several options.)

It was about 9:30AM and I realized I had no idea what we are having for dinner. I am making crockpot Arroz con pollo which is essentially the sofrito chicken I was talking about in my weekly menu. I still browned the chicken but just added all the sauce ingredients to the crock pot. The only difference is I am not adding the rice. The rice will be made in the rice cooker and added at the end. I will post the results later tonight on my blog.

This week in no particular order:

- rotisserie chicken
- black beans and rice w/ corn bread
- chicken enchiladas
- tacos made w/ ground turkey
- pizza

I have the veggies set. Plenty of those, and dessert items. It's the main course that can be the bugaboo for me.

This weeks menu:

Chicken parm with spaghetti
Steak Fajitas
chili
brown sugar chicken
pork and sauerkraut

 

[charming23]

Tonight I am using leftover chicken (I cooked up a huge chicken in the crock pot yesterday and used half of it for the chicken and dumplings) for shredded chicken tacos. We have hard taco shells plus lots of toppings.

The rest of my week in no particular order is:

spaghetti and meatballs
The lady and sons chicken pot pie
hamburgers with sweet potato fries
homemade baked macaroni and cheese
ham slices with scalloped potatoes

Hi all! It's good to be back. It's been awhile for me since being here, but life got in the way. But finally I have time to get back in the kitchen and we can eat more than soup, sandwiches, salads, and burgers on the grill. Shopping day was today and I stocked up, so it will be good eating at our house this week. Hubby sent me a text earlier saying he had missed my cooking and is looking forward to tonight's meal. Awwww how sweet.

Sun - We had cream of tomato soup and cheese sandwiches. I worked so DH cooked.
Mon - beef and cheese lasagne, baby spring mix salad, toast with garlic seasoning
Tues - roast beef stuffed shells, garden salad with Ranch dressing, herbed corn
Weds - cheeseburger pizza, basil and feta pizza
Thurs - chicken and yellow rice casserole, green peas, mixed fruit
Fri - cheese enchiladas with chili gravy sauce, guacamole salad, tortilla chips and salsa
Sat - barbecued beef ribs, grilled corn on the cob, cole slaw
Sun - chow mein noodle casserole, mixed fruit

~happy cooking!~

*On this one I double the rice and use half the onion called for, also I cook some garlic and ginger in with the meat and add in a can of chop suey vegetables like bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, and bean sprouts.

I am leaving in a few mintues to attend a training class downtown to work the election booth next week. I have no clue how long I will be down there so dinner will be easy tonight, spaghetti and meatballs.

Here's an easy one we had last night that was yummy, it's a barefoot contessa adapted recipe

1/2 cup good EVOO
9 garlic cloves chopped

heat the oil and add the garlic for like 30 seconds- really you are just warming it don't burn it!

Take off half a cup of white wine, zest from one lemon, Juice from that lemon, 1tsp oregano, 2 TBS of fresh thyme(which I had but couldn't find so I used dried and less of it) salt and pepper

Pour that into the bottom of a 9x13 pan

Lay boneless skin on chicken breast on top(I used BONE IN SKIN ON THIGHS because they are cheaper) Sprinkle with salt and pepper drizzle olive oil

Cook for about 30 mintues

My thighs took 40 minutes. You want the skin to be crispy.

Serve with rice.
mmmmmm
