My Menu

I stuck to my menu last week with the exception of Friday and Saturday. My neighbor needed me to watch her kids for a few hours Friday night until her sister got of work (they were going to a concert) so I decided to try these pizza roll ups. They were okay, the kids ate them but I prefer regular pizza instead. Saturday, we just weren't feeling like fish so we made Carne Asada instead. It was delicious as always. Last week the BEST dish I made was The Pioneer Woman's Homemade Chicken and Noodles....I had enough to freeze some for a later date, but this is something, I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend for everyone to make. It takes a bit of time, but totally worth it! Here is my menu for this week.

Sunday: Pot Roast, potatoes, carrots, salad and rolls

Monday: French Dips (with the left over pot roast), fries and macaroni salad

Tuesday: Pork Chops, cheesy potato casserole and green beans

Wednesday: Chicken and Rice Casserole (new recipe), corn and rolls

Thursday: Tortellini, Garlic Bread and salad

Friday: Chili Cheese Dogs, pasta salad and tator tots

Saturday: Appetizers, Ham and Cheese sliders, potato skins, and PW"s Meatballs

So not too many new recipes this week. I am excited to try the Ham and Cheese sliders, they LOOK delicious!! Have a great week!!

My Menu

We got to the grocery store this weekend and now our freezer, fridge and pantry are packed full of food. With that being said you would think that I would have my menu planned out for the whole month, but your wrong. For some reason I struggle to come up with the menu EVERY TIME after I go grocery shopping. It is because there are SO MANY choices, I don't know what to put where!! Plus I still have a TON of new recipes I want to try but I don't like to try to many out in one week in case if they are flops. I was able to get this weeks menu done last night and today and tomorrow I am going to forge thru and get the rest of the month completed!

Sunday: Homemade pizza, Teriyaki Chicken Legs, and Franks Hot Sauce Chicken Legs (kinda a random dinner, but it was what we had.)

Monday: Spaghetti Batch in my crock pot (we are out of our frozen ones, so time to stock up), Olive Garden Bread sticks (didn't get to this last week) and salad

Tuesday: PW's Homemade Chicken and Noodles, rolls, and salad

Wednesday: Salisbury Steak, mashed potatoes and green beans

Thursday: Swiss Chicken, rice and corn

Friday: Taco Soup

Saturday: Tilapia and roasted potatoes

So, I am trying 3 new recipes this week. I am pretty excited about The Pioneer Woman's Chicken and noodle recipe, I had been wanting to make this for some time now but had a hard time finding the noodles, but I finally found them at Albertson's and they were a reasonable price so I bought them!! Have a great week, I am off to plan the rest of my menu for the month!

Flashback Friday

It has been a long time since I have done one of these. Looking back to a year ago, I can't believe how much the girls have grown! And the amount of hair they have now vs. then!

My Menu

I swear I have a ton of other posts I want to blog about beside just a menu once a week, I just haven't gotten around to it, but I will try this week. I have a few updates on the girls that I want to let everyone know about, so please come visit back in a day or two and there will be some more posts!!


Sunday: Lasagna and garlic bread

Monday: Pork Chops, rice, asparagus and corn (babies haven't tried asparagus yet, so I have to have a backup)

Tuesday: Macaroni and Beef with cheese (new recipe, you can find it here), green beans and homemade bread sticks

Wednesday: Crock pot ranch Chicken (this recipe uses pork, but I want to try it with chicken), mashed potatoes and leftover veggies

Thursday: Taco Soup (we didn't have this last week)

Friday: Either order Chinese or eat out.

Saturday: Grocery Shopping Day....so whatever sounds good after I get done shopping

yet again I forgot to take the turkey out for Saturday, so we are going to be having a turkey dinner soon! maybe this coming Sunday, that is if I can remember to take it out :). Have a great week everyone!

My Menu

Well last week seemed to fly by, this weekend went even faster. It is Monday and time for another menu. We stuck to our menu last week with the exception on Saturday for a couple of reasons. 1. I forgot to take the turkey out to defrost it. 2. Some of Tyson's family came to visit and so we met up with them to eat out, so it worked out perfect that I forgot to take the turkey out! Here is my menu for the week.

Sunday: SUPERBOWL FOOD- Crab stuffed mushrooms, potato skins, Hot Wings, Teriyaki wings and shrimp quesadillas (from PW)

Monday: Parmesan Crusted Chicken, Cous Cous, and green beans

Tuesday: Sloppy Joes (from PW), Salad and Tator tots

Wednesday: Spaghetti and Olive Garden Breadsticks

Thursday: Crock pot Chicken Cheddar Beer Taco's (pinterest inspired this recipe), Spanish Rice and roasted potatoes

Friday: Taco Soup and quesadilla's

Saturday: Turkey Dinner night

Here is to another great week! Hope you all have a great one!!!
