It has been a LOOOONG time since I've done a Foodie Friday post! Heck! It has been a looooong time since I've done a menu plan and cooking! I guess having a 3 year old and young baby will do that. Anyway, I am so glad I made a menu plan for this week - it was so fun to try these new recipes (thanks, Pinterest!!) and cook and eat at home! Here is what our week looked like...
Monday: Baked Garlic Brown Sugar Chicken, Au Gratin Potatoes (Betty Crocker), and Cheesy Broccoli (one of those steamer bags from the frozen food section)
What a delicious meal! The chicken was tender and had great flavor! And then who can go wrong with au gratin potatoes, cheesy broccoli, and Hawaiian rolls :) Go {here} for the chicken recipe!
Tuesday: Sandwiches/Leftovers
Wednesday: Cilantro Lime Chicken Rice Bake
This meal was pretty involved (note: do not make if you want a quick, easy meal), but man, was it worth it! Our neighbors came over to eat with us and there weren't any leftovers!!! It was delicious! I forgot to get a picture of the creamy sauce to put on top of it, but it is quite similar to Chuy's Creamy Jalapeno sauce - YUM! Go {here} for the recipe!
Look at all of those dirty dishes! Definitely a sign of a good meal...and since I cooked, Brad got to clean all of those :) He said it was worth it though!
Thursday: Cream Cheese Sausage Pinwheels and Scrambled Eggs
YUM! These were so easy and delicious...I could not stop eating them! It would obviously work as a breakfast or brunch item, but sometimes we like to do breakfast for dinner - perfect! Go {here} for this recipe!
And I actually put things out on the table! Usually, we serve buffet style, but it was nice to have it on the table with us for a change. Maybe buffet style would've been better - those pinwheels were right in front of me calling my name :)
I think all 3 of these recipes will be made again in this house! Yum! And I've already got next week planned out as well :) So stay tuned for more yumminess! Happy Friday!
