I haven't seen one of these in awhile and I desperately need to start cooking at home more. Give me some ideas!
-
Only 3 nights this week:
Salmon with mustard cream sauce (inspired from a dinner out)
Buttermilk baked chicken tenders
Pasta Puttanesca -
Kind of a mess this week b/c of holiday potlucks and stuff:
Last night: wonton soup
Tonight: Meatballs+rice
Tues: thai enchiladas
Wedn: crispy chicken salads
Thurs: buffalo chicken sandwiches
Friday: outI made the meatballs, soup, and enchiladas over the weekend. I'm re-using chicken Wedn and Thurs. This week's crazy so I prepped big time!
-
@blackbird: ooh meatballs could be good! I need something cheap
-
@luckypenny: I wish meatballs were cheap! It's like $7 a bag here and I bought 4 bags. Gah. But it lasts us awhile. If you can snag them on sale for about $5/bag, that's a great price!
-
I just have two things on the menu so far (I'm terrible at planning ahead!) but if you are looking for ideas, here they are
Maple mustard chicken from Epicurious -- this is an old favorite we've been making for years! http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Panko-Crusted-Chicken-with-Mustard-Maple-Pan-Sauce-355192
Skinnytaste no bean turkey and sweet potato chili -- never made this before but it sounds yummy. I love Skinnyaste recipes. http://www.skinnytaste.com/2013/10/no-bean-turkey-and-sweet-potato-chili.html
-
@MrsSCB: I have made that chili recipe quite a few times, it is delicious but I find we usually end up increasing the amount of seasoning because otherwise my SO complains it is too bland!
-
Tonight: cheeseburger soup (supposed to snow)
Tues: turkey tacos
Wed: shrimp alfredo
Thurs: tator tot casserole
Fri: tuna noodle casserole or lasagna (both freezer meals depends on the mood to pull one out)deifnetley going "comfort" food this week with the weather we are supposed to have and we are a sick household, battling rough coughs. I'm PRAYING it's just a cough/cold and nothing more, taking LO in again for the second time in a week, whopping cough is going around like crazy. We all have our shots, but well you just never know.
-
@mrswin: Ooh, I do like a lot of flavor so I'll probably add some extra. I also have the chipotle-flavored Tabasco sauce in the fridge, which I bet would go well added in. Thanks for the tip!
