I am totally getting into the swing of this and it really has been helping us to eat at home far more than we were.
I am so proud to say last week I cooked at home all five days during the work week! That is a HUGE accomplishment for us as a family!
With the summer here I am looking to include more grill recipes, light meal ideas for the heat, and overall summer-friendly recipes so I have been spending way too much time on Pinterest.
Heck if it wasn’t for Pinterest my project would be dead in the water!
Anyway! This week I got tons of great recipes to share! I hope you enjoy them!
Monday
Sante Fe Grilled Chicken Salad – This is a great Monday night recipe for us because I can grill the chicken up on the grill, and prepare the salad itself during the day so we can hurry out to softball. The recipe is great, and it is a healthy options – but also filling!
Tuesday
Korean Beef – I am all about trying some new things with this project, and of course my husband is about trying new food as a whole. I thought this would be a fun different kind of beef since most of the time we are eating the same recipes with beef, or ground beef!
Wednesday
Double Crunch Honey Garlic Pork Chops – I love trying something new with pork. We eat very little of it in our house because I am not a huge fan and the kids seem to be following in my foot steps. Although I don’t see how we can go wrong with this flavorful dish!
Thursday
Homemade Pizza – No special recipe, just picking up a couple packages of dough from our local grocers deli area and rolling it out for little personal pizza’s. Whatever is leftover for the dough we typically will use to make a cheesy bread, or garlic bread. Lots of bread! It is especially fun for the kids!
Friday
Buttermilk Baked Chicken – Baked is of course better than fried! Chicken is a hit in our house, and with the appetites on these kids it is filling!
