Eat at home 2!

[njsweetP]

I keep it very simple. When I make my gravy from the pot roast drippings I put 1/2 of it back to use in my pie. I chop up leftover roast and veggies and also use any veggies I have hanging out my fridge that are left over. I mix them together with the gravy. I take mashed potatoes (normally I make extra earlier in the week and put them in fridge) and mix in a little garlic powder. I spray a baking dish and put in the roast/veggie/gravy mix and spread the potatoes over the top. I brush the top of the potatoes with olive oil and then dot with a few pea size pieces of butter. Into the oven at 350 for 40-50 minutes and that is it. I also sometimes make it in the morning and stick it in the fridge. When DH get's home he sticks it in the over and dinner is ready in a short time.

Thank you!

Last night was a bust. I am recovering from a double ear infection and ended up napping too late. So I had frozen pizza and mom had a scrambled egg sandwich with fruit.

So tonight will be spaghetti and meatballs.

Sunday night was taco night with all the fixings and refried beans.
Monday night was pot roast from the crock pot, white rice and fried sweet plantains.
Tonight is tequila lime and chipotle chicken breast, yellow rice with chorizo and sweet plantains again (we bought a bunch on sale last week when they were green an now have to eat all the ripe ones leftover lol!).
Tomorrow is leftovers from taco and pot roast night.

Last night ended up being the tuna noodle casserole. My stomach wasn't the happiest so I didn't want a tomato heavy dish like planned. Tonight was the tomato soup with grilled cheese. Tomorrow will be hot dogs and fries.

skinny taste is amazing! She makes delicious things that are weight watchers friendly and you don't feel like you're eating diet food. my family actually prefers the skinny taste arroz con pollo recipe to my original recipe. It's so good!

I started out great... but, too many things got in the way of sticking to our meal plans....

Sunday My older 2 ate at my mothers and the youngest had a sleep study and so we just grabbed dinner at the hospital cafeteria.
Monday, I took my daughter out for a birthday lunch. Just her and I at O'Charleys. Don't even remember what I made for dinner. Probably just sandwiches. All I know is that the two oldest were complaining of belly aches.
Tuesday, My daughter stayed home sick with a tummy bug. I ended up making Turkey soup in the crock pot, plus they has sandwiches and salad.
Tonight they decided on Tacos.
Tomorrow, Polish Sausages & Potatoes in the Crock pot, salad
Friday=Movie Night. We are watching Princess and the Frog and so DD wants me to make Gumbo. HA! I think it will be Baked Chicken (Cajun spices) w/rice, salad, and .... DESSERT SUGGESTIONS!!??
Saturday - Leftovers.
Sunday - Tuna Casserole & Salad.
