Menu- 21 Feb

 

We had a lot of leftovers from Jambalaya (hope everyone had a great Fat Tuesday!) and Corned Beef so again I rolled some meals over from last week.  Here's what we have planned for this week.

• Random Appetizers for family fun night  The Commissary had a sale on different frozen appetizer stuff. I rarely buy it and the kiddos think this is a huge treat. We spent this evening eating appetizer sort of stuff and playing Disney Scene It!

• Moroccan Lentil Soup (from last week) 

• Crock-pot Sloppy Joes (from last week) 

• Dirty Rice I normally buy a mix for this. I'm trying to cut the boxed foods from our eating a little at a time. I figure this one isn't that hard to make from scratch.

• Orange-Honey Glazed Chicken This is a Cook's Illustrated recipe. Unfortunately there's a subscription service for their older recipes.  If you happen to have access to their older recipes, this one is awesome.

• Chicken Spaghetti Some how I've lost my chicken spaghetti recipe and I haven't made it in about a year and a half. It's one of those dishes I forget about, but it's great for a crowd. We have a Family Readiness Group (more on that later maybe) meeting this week and I thought this would be the perfect thing to make. I may also have to make a pan of brownies. I'm an over-achiever that way. It drives Nil crazy. But hey, I love to cook for people. Anyway I think this recipe is basically it.  Though I know my recipe had bell pepper in it.

• Leftovers/YOYO (You're On You're Own)
