I am very intrigued by the poached eggs dish. Would you be willing to share the recipe? Thank you.

Sorry it's been so long since I have contributed. Trying to get back on track with everything. Hope you are all doing well.

This week:
Sunday: BBQ beef, pasta salad, baked beans
Monday-Chicken alfredo, salad
Tuesday: Patty Melts, salad and hand cut oven baked fries, salad
Wednesday: Turkey Meatballs and spaghetti, salad
Thursday: BLT's, Blueberry and strawberry fruit parfaits, pasta salad,

Since my former postings our diet has changed. We largely eat organic. We have replaced almost all breads with sprouted grain varieties and pastas are gluten free.

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Well we mostly stuck to last weeks menu but did switch up the days a bit. I still find it helpful to have a menu. It makes sure I have all the ingredients in the house and a few choices when it comes time to make dinner. It doesn't really matter what day we do what.

Now for this weeks menu..

Tonight.. Crockpot beef stew and homemade bread

Monday.. Eggs and toast and fruit

Tuesday.. Spaghetti and Meatballs

Wednesday.. Chicken fingers and fries and veggies

Thursday.. Leftovers

Friday.. Homemade pizzas

Saturday.. My Birthday. Not sure if we are going out as we are saving for a March Break trip but maybe we'll get take out

Sunday.. Chicken Fried Rice and salad

Monday-Farmhouse Chicken Chowder
Tuesday- Garlic Salmon with a fried egg on top and Sweet potato home fries

Smola09's Mom -

The recipe is really quick and easy -

Peppers and Eggs
2 peppers sliced thin (I use red and orange peppers)
1 onion sliced thin or minced
1 jar spaghetti sauce
6 eggs
toasted bread (I like to use French bread)

Sauté onions and peppers in a large skillet. Add tomato sauce. Crack eggs in sauce and cover skillet. Cook for about 10 to 15 minutes until the yolks are to your liking. Serve over toast. Quick and easy dinner!

Welcome SarahKumba!!

Farmhouse Chicken Chowder

This sounds interesting. Can you share the recipe?

 

[Monykalyn]

So tonite turned out to be panini sandwiches made to order and fruit. My sons best friend is staying with us for a few days while his mom and dad are at hospital with the younger brother (some diagnostic work ups for stomach issues). But the extra sandwiches will go in school lunches tomorrow
Monday: finish leftover pizza/pasta from weekend (I have my women's service club meetings on Monday-usually go straight from work so Monday's usually a leftover day)
Tuesday- Crockpot roast chicken
Wednesday : likely a stew
...not sure about rest of week yet- MIL coming to stay with kids while DH and I are out of town for work. We get back Saturday and hubs leaves Sunday for mtg in Wisconsin. All this is seriously messing with my menu planning lol!
I've got to work eggs in there somewhere - with the unseasonal warm weather my chickens are still laying- over 2 dozen eggs in fridge right now (I just gave away a dozen too). Going to try the poached eggs in tomato sauce!

Farmhouse Chicken Chowder

1-1/4 pounds boneless chicken breast or 3 cups cooked,* shredded or cut into bite-size pieces
sea salt and fresh black pepper
flour, for dusting raw chicken
olive oil for sauteing
1 large yellow onion, diced
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ginger, minced (or 1/4 teaspoon ground)
1 cup carrots, thinly sliced into coins
1/2 cup celery, diced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
2 bay leaves
2 cups parsnips, thinly sliced into coins
2 cups potatoes, cubed
2 cups sweet potatoes, cubed
1 cup corn
5 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 packed cups baby spinach, stacked and cut into thin ribbons (chiffonade)
1 pint heavy cream

I do mine in the Crock pot, 5 hours for everything but the spinach and the cream that goes in for the last hour! I makes tons, and leftovers always taste better!

Stay warm figment! Hope the power stays on too!

Slight change of plans this week- Monday I ended up skipping my meeting as I didn't sleep night before- so we had omelets and fruit stuffed crepes
Home with sick child today so threw together a stew for crockpot
Wednesday - supposed to be upper 60's- steak on the grill!
Thursday - will make a baked mac n cheese for my MIL (who's watching the kids while hubs and I are out of town for work)

Planning baked potato soup for weekend (probably getting some snow- gotta love going from no jacket to heavy winter coat weather in a couple days )
