The Goose has decided that she wants to learn to cook, so she has taken over the Wednesday night dinner (with assistance of course). And I am eating healthier over all.
I have always eaten a standardized breakfast, an over easy egg on a corn tortilla. But now I find myself standardizing my lunch as well. Spinach Salad. I change the toppings based on what is around, but it always has some sort of nuts and some sort of cheese on it. I am currently obsessed with the dressing from Thursday nights salad. I made a vat of it and stuck it in a squeeze bottle in the fridge. Just as easy as store bought dressing. Twice as tasty.
I love when life gets on a roll!
WOMP - Take Two
Tuesday
Chicken and Dumplings My great-grandmother's recipe (posting tomorrow) Made by Karen Ray |
Chef Salad recipe from Cooking Light. Amazing Dressing recipe from Cooking Light as well. |
Tostadas After a busy week, Friday night's dinner has to be easy. All I want is to relax and enjoy my family. The best part of tostadas is that they can be formulated to please everyone! |
Chicken Piccata with Summer Vegetable Pasta. Recipe from Cooking Light. If you make this one (it is very, very good) do yourself a favor and prep it in advance. It took longer to make than expected, but that was because I didn't read the prep involved before starting. |
French Dip with green beans and Tim's Asiago, garlic oven fries. The French Dip recipe is from the blog A Year of Slow Cooking. If you haven't visited Stephanie O'Dea's blog before it is a great resource for a busy family! Tim's Asiago garlic oven fries recipe will be posted soon. |
So how did you do this week? Have you been menu planning? Are you taking pictures? Do you find there are other changes that are developing in conjunction with the process?
I can't wait to see them... link up below!
