Week of January 6th

Welcome to the New Year!
Sorry, I have been away for so long.  Life has been a whirlwind since the beginning of September.  We found out DH was starting a new job, back in St. Louis - WOHOO! We moved into an extended stay for a few months.  The kitchen was, lets just say, less than desirable.  DH said he felt like a bull in a china shop when he was cooking.  Then the beginning of December we were blessed with a friend's condo.

Last year I made the meals and then commented on them.  This year I decided I would just make and then comment later.  It seems easier to me.  I hope you agree.  Otherwise, you would have had to wait another week for a post.

Here goes!

  • Sunday: Hamburgers
  • Monday: Tacos with Mexican Rice
    • I didn't make this rice.  I made my variation which is....rice, salsa, cumin, salt, mexican cheese. 
  • Tuesday: Slow-Cooked Bolognese Sauce
    • This was yummy...
  • Wednesday: Chorizo-Potato Frittata
    • This wasn't worth my time nor the money I paid for the manchego cheese.  DH said it wasn't bad, I thought it was yuck!  There was barely any flavor, the potatoes didn't cook all the way, & the eggs were mealy.  
  • Thursday: Baked Paprika Parmesan Chicken
  • Friday: Homemade Pizza
  • Saturday: Porksteaks with potato salad 

Wishing you a blessed week and remember it is ok to play with your food,
just make sure you have fun!
