weekly menu posting

not much on the menu at our house this week as we are headed home to celebrate thanksgiving with our families, but what we did have was amazing and easy so i thought i would share.

sunday: mexican lime soup with chicken -- topped this with some greek yogurt and chips and it made for a tasty easy meal, along with some delish leftovers.

monday: carne asada tacos with carrot-pepper slaw -- these tacos were better than most from a restaurant, highly recommend trying this recipe.

tuesday: rigatoni with roasted cauliflower and brussels sprouts -- i was skeptical at first of this recipe but it turned out to be great and i even had to go back for more.

weekly menu posting

this blog is dedicated to my good friend matt, who sent me a screenshot of my last blog post from 9/11. 
it has been too long since i've blogged so i thought the best way to get back into it is to post this week's menu.

sunday: taco salad -- we volunteered at our church serving a meal and they were kind enough to let us eat what we were serving, tacos -- i made mine into a taco salad and it was so good.

monday: chicken noodle soup -- threw this into a slow cooker and it was awesome better than anything out of a can or panera.

tuesday: dip night -- kate and nicole came over for dip night, yes you read that right.  we had spin dip, greek dip, corn dip and gauc.  when they left my stomach hurt from laughing so much, it was pure bliss.

wednesday: chicken stroganoff -- this was on the menu this evening and i thought it was just alright.  i prefer beef stroganoff but this was a healthier alternative.

thursday: ravioli alfredo with peas -- looking forward to quick easy meal when we get home from work, per the recipe this should take 20 minutes from start to finish.

friday: cosi cucina -- we have a groupon to use to one of our favorite places, bring on the cheesecake!

saturday: kung pao chicken -- i haven't decided if i'm going to use chicken or not yet, it might just become a spicy veggie stir fry.
